Re: kdeconnect - audio streaming - Phone Microphone for Desktop
for details see https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=121902

This feature makes a ton of sense, especially given that voice recognition is getting evermore popular and you can now search Google and other cool stuff on your desktop, which you need a good mic for.

This very useful feature was requested in 2014 and seems like a fairly straight forward thing to accomplish - especially given everything else KDEConnect can now do, so just wondering why has it not been done?

EXPECTED RESULT
That I could use my Android Phone to work as a mic on my KDE Desktop / Chrome / Voice recognition app, etc.

This Mic / App output would show up in my Audio settings so I could select it as my primary recording input, etc.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- KDEConnect is a great tool - thanks for developing and supporting this software!
