I'm developing a HoloLens 2 application in Unity that uses MRTK. I would like to use the "Select" keyword for a custom voice command register. However, if I use the keyword "Select", it is overridden by the default HoloLens 2 voice command. A little "Select" icon will pop up and the app will simulate a finger tap, and my custom voice command won't execute. I was curious if it were possible to disable the default "Select" voice command so that I can use this keyword for my custom feature? If not, is there a way to switch out the keyword so that I can use "Select" and the default command uses a different word?
I've already tried removing the voice command from the MRTK profile in the Unity inspector and removing it from objects in my scene, but it seems that it didn't do anything.

Hello, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,
May I ask what is the scenario? How do you configure the profile of MRTK profile/Input/Speech? Which component are you using? Any screenshots or reproducible steps would be helpful.

I'm also running into this problem. There are some default keywords that seem to be always active, even if you deleted them from the profile.
For example:
"Select", "Disable/Enable Handrays"
Unsing the HL2SpeechCommandsProfile without any commands listed.
Hi KM,
I did some simple tests but didn't reproduce your issue. Can you share your scenario? If you don't want to use speech commands, you just need to disable the corresponding components.
"If you don't want to use speech commands, you just need to disable the corresponding components."
This is what I'm trying. I intentionally removed all commands, because I'm using a custom voice detection library. "Speech" cannot simply be deactivated, since it is a fixed part of the a InputSystemProfile. Setting the SpeechCommands profile to "None" will cause NullReferences.
If the user says "Select", a little panel with the word "Select" (blue) will popup and the gaze cursor (orange) is activated (see picture)
I don't want this. I don't want any legacy commands in my Unity application. Commands like "Record a video" are also always enabled. I need to disable ALL voice commands from the HoloLens OS while my application is running.
FIY: The custom voice lib is not connected to the MRTKProfiles and does not interfear with any legacy stuff of the HoloLens
To reproduce: Create a HoloLens application with unity and remove all commands from the SpeechCommandsProfile. Now run the application on the HoloLens and say "Select", "Record a video".
