Automatic language detection always translates to English.

I haven’t used Whisper in a while and thought I’d try it again. However, I’m having a hard time making it work with automatic language detection. I switch between German and English input all the time and I need automatic detection. When I activate automatic detection, I always end up having German dictation translated to English. When I set it to either German or English, I always receive, well German or English. I expect Automatic language to transcribe whatever input language to the same output (which I think used to work like that). Aside: My user dictionary must have been wiped by a recent update (haven’t used SW in a while but never uninstalled it) Tested with Ultra Cloud, Ultra Local and Nova 3 Cloud.

Yeah, I ended up having several modes for several languages, and it makes me super slow, let alone unable to dictate multilingual content, which works flawlessly in the GPT app.
