service isn't restarted after switching storage directory

[DrYak]

In Speech Notes' settings, when changing the directory where the Deep Speech models are stored, the harbour-dsnote.service isn't restarted and keep looking at the old (wrong) path.

Context:

• I've been using Speech Notes on my Xperia XA2 (32GB edition, not that much storage available for /home)
• I'm storing the models on the external SD card
• I've recently switch to an Xperia 10iii, and installed Speech Notes on it too
• I've moved the SD card to the new device
• I've changed the Location of language files to point to the path on the SD Card.
• Speech Notes now sees the already installed language models.
• Speech Notes can even download new models.
• BUT the settings doesn't allow me to select a model, only to download new
• and the main pannel complains that no model has been configured.

Current work-around:

• as the user (E.g.: nemo or defaultUser)

  systemctl --user restart harbour-dsnote.service

Request:

• Could it be possible for the app to trigger the service restart?
• Or could you change the API so clients such as Speech Notes could send a "please restart" command?

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Most likely it is a bug. Service harbour-dsnote.service should restart itself automatically after directory change.

I will look into it and resolve the problem in the upcoming release.
