crash on iOS 17.2 on real and simulator devices

Hi,

I'm using this great lib for STT and it works like a charm on Android. Unfortunately on iOS I get always a crash without any information just by calling this code below.

  void checkMicrophoneAvailability() async {
    try {
      bool available = await _speech.initialize(debugLogging: true);
      if (available) {
        print('Microphone available: $available');
      } else {
        print("The user has denied the use of speech recognition.");
      }
    } catch (e) {
      print(e);
    }
  }

I have added the permissions in the info.plist and Podfile...maybe it is just a missing configuration setting. Even the example provided in your github is crashing the same way.

Any idea how to fix this?

thanks in advance.
