Hi there! When using the stock Motorola/Verizon Droid ROM, my Google Voice Search capabilities worked fantastically. For example, when I activate Google Voice Search and then speak "call Taco Bell", my phone would accurately identify a list of Taco Bells that were nearby (relative to my current GPS location) and provide options to call them.

Now, with CyanogenMod, my GPS still works in other apps, but Google Voice Search seems to ignore my GPS location. When I try "Call Taco Bell" it pulls up results in Cambridge, MA and Chicago IL, both of which are nowhere near my current location (I'm in the Western US).

How can I fix this so that Google Voice Search uses my GPS location again?

Thank you!

Note: I perused the FAQs and did a forum search for this issue, but couldn't find anything pertinent.
