Additional information

I noticed 2.0.0 broke, but it wasn't until I dug into the logs with 2.1.0 that I discovered the issue appears to be internet related.

I'm a total layman, but from that log, it looks like Whisper is trying to download a model from HuggingFace and then stopping altogether when it can't get to it. Note that this seems to happen no matter which model I'm using. Even leaving it on tiny-int8, the add on will not start unless it can access the internet.

Anything I can do to fix this? :(
