Audio reliability improvements

v0.1.3, fix

Fixed several issues that could cause audio to stop working or behave unpredictably:

Microphone crashes: Resolved a crash that could occur after a few seconds of dictation on certain microphone setups, particularly with macOS aggregate audio devices

Speech detection: The speech gate was too aggressive on built-in microphones, sometimes filtering out actual speech. Dictation now reliably picks up your voice at normal speaking levels

Device selection: Epilude no longer changes your system-wide audio input when selecting a microphone — other apps are unaffected

Dictation widget: Fixed the widget not appearing when you first launch Epilude

If you previously experienced audio issues with your built-in microphone, these fixes should resolve them. No settings changes needed.
