Users report Gemini speech recognition fails on Japanese ~90% of the time

A user reports Gemini's speech recognition struggles badly outside English: with English and Japanese both configured, Japanese speech fails to register as Japanese about 90% of the time and is misheard the rest. Google Translate's speech recognition handles the same multilingual speech fine, suggesting the issue isn't accent but Gemini itself.
