Audio input component should have error message on blocked mic
While testing on localhost the microphone gets blocked and I hadn't realized it. I would only get a weird grey block on top of the play bar when trying to record a voice annotation – as if an error was caught but didn't get displayed or something.
It would be good if this was turned into an explicit error: when users microphone is blocked, show specific error, something like: 'your microphone is blocked, deblock it to add a voice annotation'. This is probably an edge case on mobile but not necessarily on desktop. Here are my screenshots:
I had never noticed the small icon and thought the audio input component just didn't work on my computer : )
