Press to send a new request

I had Google assistant on my Ubuntu before. But now that I passed to zorin os, the Google assistant doesn't have the OK Google recognition. It says "press enter to send a new request" but I just want to have the OK Google

If you are using the latest Goolgle Assistant SDK Service from here, I believe they have removed the hotword detection, a workaround is possible using snowboy if you want to do it, I haven't tried it yet though.

Adding for those who are trying to enable hotword feature and avoid push enter to talk you can do these steps:
// upgrade google-assistant-library
$ python3 -m pip install --upgrade google-assistant-library

//Run the demo
google-assistant-demo --project-id PROJECT_ID --device-model-id DEVICE_MODEL

and then you can use "hey google or OK google" hotword, no keyentries needed.
You can also make it run at system startup which makes it great ;)
