GBoard "New Line" Not Working

I have been using GBoard voice to text for years. A few months ago it stopped converting "period new line" to a period and going to a new line. It does convert the "Period" to a period then displays "new line". Same for "new paragraph"; it just puts in the words.

This worked fine for years. I don't know what happened recently. I have been hoping it would "cure" itself just like it "broke" itself but no luck.

So I finally had to surrender and ask for help.

Ant ideas?

 

Nope, that didn't help.
What else?

 

Does anybody have any recommendations for alternative speech2text keyboards?

 

Well, doesn't this take the cake.
I installed an app, "Classic Big Keyboard" from google play.
Speaking "New line" moves down to the next line like Gboard used to.
If I switch to Gboard, New line does not work but if I switch back yo Classic New line works.

In fact, I guess it is because I have two keyboards installed, so there is the image of a keyboard on the right of the bottom bar. If I tap it I can select between Classic, Gboard, Google voice typing. Switching right in the middle of a document will enable/disable New Line.
