idk how to test, basically transcription does not work with my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphone

i tried:

• use the input and output

showing "preparing segment" but no transcription for some reason

few problems i noticed on the way unrelated to this PR:

iphone recording but does not work until you unlock the iphone

when selecting headphone as audio input it will disable noise cancellation (Sony WH-1000XM4) also had this on airpod

[EzraEllette]

I will fix the logging. It's likely that you didn't meet the speech ratio threshold, but I will make sure.

[EzraEllette]

Ok I'm going to test with AirPods in about an hour

I am unable to replicate any of the issues correlated with this pr. I don't think they are related to this PR. I updates logging to show speech frames and ratio. I also removed logging for preparing segments and resampling.
