Subject: [PATCH] macOS: fix Dictation icon starting above the text, not below

Partially fixes #8493.

After dictating some texts, the icon still appears above, but it will return to its right position after resizing or `\n` (saying newline, not hitting enter).

This behaviour is better than before, where the icon always appeared above.
