Title: Hi all,<p>I have OverSight installed on my macbook (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;objective-see.com&#x2F;products&#x2F;oversight.html), which lets me see which apps activate the microphone.<p>Up until now, everything was quiet and expected.<p>As of today though, Chrome (Version 78.0.3904.70) tried on several occasions to activate the microphone. It crashed when I denied the request. I have not been on any website requiring microphone use and no website is allowed microphone access.<p>This seems to happen in particular when I reopen the lid of my macbook and it is taken out of sleep.<p>This is the log entry from OverSight:<p>2019-10-31 19:27:22 +0000: Audio Device became active (Built-in Microphone, process: Chrome Helper, &#x2F;Applications&#x2F;Google Chrome.app&#x2F;Contents&#x2F;Frameworks&#x2F;Google Chrome Framework.framework&#x2F;Versions&#x2F;78.0.3904.70&#x2F;Helpers&#x2F;Google Chrome Helper.app&#x2F;Contents&#x2F;MacOS&#x2F;Google Chrome Helper)<p>Any of you noticed a similar behavior?
