Speech sample code returning "Unspecified connection error (200)" - HELP!

I'm following the sample code provided my MS here:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/get-started-speech-to-text?tabs=script%2Cbrowser%2Cwindowsinstall&pivots=programming-language-csharp

I have created an instance of the Speech service in Azure, in west europe. I have instantiated the "SpeechConfig" using one of the keys from the instance of the speech service as the "subscription key" param (shown as xxx below) and "westeurope" for the region param, as follows:

speechConfig = SpeechConfig.FromSubscription("xxx", "westeurope");

When I run the code I get the following error:

WebSocket upgrade failed: Unspecified connection error (200). SessionId: 1013492dc1fc4d98abe7258141e8c324

I am stuck - I don't see any hits on the speech instance in Azure either. Please help! I can't find any info on the web about this error but so I'm pretty sure I'm doing something stupid 😫

    Following up. Please ensure that you're entering the correct subscription key and region. If error persists, then I encourage you to leverage the Help+Support blade in Azure portal to submit a request for further investigation. Hope this helps. Thanks.
