Fan stays on during voice commands...

For the last couple of weeks, I thought my system has seemed to be having a hard time hearing my voice commands. I just chalked it up to the fact that I generally had trouble while on the highway and that all the road noise from being at speed was the culprit.

This morning, I noticed that when I press the button to talk to the system, my climate control fan doesn't slow down like it used to. As far as I can tell, there isn't a setting somewhere that I might have unknowingly changed.

Anybody have any ideas??

I know when you use the HFL it doesn't affect the fans but the navigation commands always slow down the fans for me....

I think it might only work when the "Auto" button is lit up. It doesn't work for me about 75% of the time, but I never use auto (I have my own preferences)

I do have it in the "AUTO" setting.

I just noticed that the manual says that the fan may slow down after pressing the talk button. So maybe there's something about the conditions these days that's making it decide not to slow down the fan.

Maybe it sees that it's much colder outside than the set temperature inside (it not that it's trying still reach the set temp, because even when it's already nice and toasty inside, the fan still blows) and decides not to stop trying to send warm air into the car.
