Describe the bug
I'm getting the following error when trying to complete the 08 - Speech.ipynb notebook in the mslearn-ai900:

To Reproduce
Here's the full code:

import os
from playsound import playsound
from azure.cognitiveservices.speech import SpeechConfig, SpeechRecognizer, AudioConfig

# Get spoken command from audio file
file_name = 'light-on.wav'
audio_file = os.path.join('data', 'speech', file_name)

# Configure speech recognizer
speech_config = SpeechConfig(cog_key, cog_location)
audio_config = AudioConfig(filename=audio_file) # Use file instead of default (microphone)
speech_recognizer = SpeechRecognizer(speech_config, audio_config)

# Use a one-time, synchronous call to transcribe the speech
speech = speech_recognizer.recognize_once()

# Play audio and show transcribed text
playsound(audio_file)
print(speech.text)

Never mind. I confused cog_location with cog_endpoint.
