@toastedtoasty I think you might have forgot to configure your mail in the oauth tab in google Dev console.
This happened to me.

@dvbit You can add

console.log("hook", k)

in line 100 of node_helper.js to check whether hookstring be caught or not.

@sean Thanks… guess what? assistant setup in my mother tongue did not catch english hook :-D

@sean @JRCelis Im having the same issue with the buzz and im also using the HAT. Did you fix the issue? Is there a way to just not use the HAT I have a usb mic but Im new at the whole raspberry thing.
Looks like a great module but im having small hickups along the way.

I’ve installed MMM-AssistantMk2 with MMM-Hotword and MMM-NotificationTrigger.
Everything works fine except for the return audio.
It stutters and i’m getting the idea that it isn’t procest quick eneough.

Am i the only one with this problem and if not does somebody have the solution?

@markv @teitlebot
There could be many reasons for that case.
Maybe too many modules or too many front-end refreshing or animating, too many background process or anything else, even including internet speed.
I cannot point specific reason at this moment.
Anyway in my device, I use BT speaker and I have no problem about that. Sorry.

@sean
Thanks for the reply.
I was scared of something like that. After a clean raspbian image i just installed MagicMirror and after that MMM-AssistantMK2, MMM-Hotword and MMM-TriggerNotification (with all the nmp rebuild errors). I’ve uninstalled the compleet LibreOffice and game packets wich come by default with raspbian.

I allready made a .asoundrc file like you can find around the internet.
aplay && arecord work fine without glitches.

Result .asoundrc

What would you suggest doing now? I’m a little stuck now, due to my lack of knowledge of Linux.
