When I say "Hey Google" a beep sound would alert me that it was listening. Now it doesn't. I searched YouTube found the video, after selecting accessibility the switch access is not an option. How do I turn on the Google beep? Fold 4 android version 13. If you need more info don't hesitate to ask!

Oh brother!! Not a whole reset! Well, I'll get a fresh backup and try it out, can't hurt. 

Thanks again, I appreciate you for trying. If it works I will let you know.

Just fired up the phone after factory reset. Still no beep after I say Hey Google. It does still hear me. Guess I'll have to get a hold of Google. lol

@Finsfan Apologies, I thought I posted a link.

Any previous version other than the one you have now, preferably a somewhat recent one.

OK, after factory reset, APK installed, turned voice access on and it works! Thank you so much @VerbumVeritum I appreciate all that you've done!

@Finsfan Great success! I'm happy you finally got this annoying problem fixed!

As an aside, installing an older version of the Google app via APK was the likely fix in this scenario. You shouldn't have needed to factory reset.
