    Hello,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    Generally, we could press Window key + H to activate the speech recognition interface. You could try to simulate this keyboard shortcut in your code to activate the function by using InputInjector Class

    Here is the sample that you could refer to: 

                InputInjector inputInjector = InputInjector.TryCreate();  
  
            await Task.Delay(100);  
  
            var info1 = new InjectedInputKeyboardInfo();  
            info1.VirtualKey = (ushort)VirtualKey.LeftWindows;  
            inputInjector.InjectKeyboardInput(new[] { info1 });  
  
  
            var info2 = new InjectedInputKeyboardInfo();  
            info2.VirtualKey = (ushort)VirtualKey.H;  
            inputInjector.InjectKeyboardInput(new[] { info2 });  
  
  
            info1.KeyOptions = InjectedInputKeyOptions.KeyUp;  
            inputInjector.InjectKeyboardInput(new[] { info1 });

    Thank you.
