Does any one know of an application that can convert audio to text? I'm running ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

I you are looking to convert speech to text you could try opening up your Ubuntu Software Center and search for Julius

Description

"Julius" is a high-performance, two-pass large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) decoder software for speech-related researchers and developers.

Or another option that isn't in the Software Center is Simon

... is an open-source speech recognition program and replaces the mouse and keyboard.
