"Ok Google from any screen" overrides and disables voice control. Any tricks?

In Google Now if I turn on the ability to say "Ok Google" from any screen it overrides and disables the voice commands on the device (Incoming calls, camera, alarm music). Is there anyway to get around this and have both work simultaneously?


Completely stock device

Thanks

if you have nova launcher it has it built in by default so that you can say ok google from any screen

that way you can use it and break nothing else

Ahhh.... I was looking at that in Nova today and couldn't figure out what the difference was.

So if I turn on in Nova and unselected it in Google Now I should be good to go?
