MMM-Assistantmk2 and MMM-Hotword not picking up

[jmartin1009]

@ejay-ibm I also changed it so the sauce wasn’t there and I made it so it said plughw:1 in all of them, but still nothing

This is my MMM-Hotword config.js part :

{
      module: "MMM-Hotword",
      config: {
        snowboy: [
          /*	{
						"hotwords": "smartmirror",
						"file": "resources/models/smart_mirror.umdl",
						"sensitivity": "0.5"
					},

*/
          {
            hotwords: "alexa",
            file: "resources/models/alexa.umdl",
            sensitivity: "0.6"
          },

          {
            file: "resources/models/jarvis.umdl",
            sensitivity: "0.6,0.60",
            hotwords: ["jarvis", "jarvis"]
          }
        ],
        record: {
          sampleRate: 16000,
          threshold: 0.5,
          thresholdStart: null,
          thresholdEnd: null,
          silence: 1,
          verbose: false,
          recordProgram: "arecord",
          device: "plughw:1"
        },
        autostart: true,
        autorestart: true,
        notifications: {
          PAUSE: "HOTWORD_PAUSE",
          RESUME: "HOTWORD_RESUME",
          LISTENING: "HOTWORD_LISTENING",
          SLEEPING: "HOTWORD_SLEEPING",
          ERROR: "HOTWORD_ERROR"
        },
        onDetected: {
          notification: function(payload) {
            return "ASSISTANT_ACTIVATE";
          },
          payload: function(payload) {
            return {
              profile: payload.hotword
            };
          }
        }
      }
    },

You can give it a try .

@jmartin1009 but, that explains no response from the modules!

[jmartin1009]

@ejay-ibm that is for the MM config.js right? Or is that what you have in the MMM-Hotword.js config file?

[jmartin1009]

@sdetweil What explains no response from the modules? My mic’s gain in alsamixer? if so how can i fix that? Or should i just get a new mic

[sdetweil]

@jmartin1009 i would get a new mic… clearly this one is having issues… is that the array?

[jmartin1009]

@sdetweil yeah it’s the PS3 eye camera microphone, it has a 4 microphone array that alsamixer hates lol

[costascontis]

I use the ps3 eye cam mic and its working fine with hotword…

[ejay-ibm]

install audacity and give a quick test to your mic.
you will know if you mic is dead

sudo apt-get install audacity

yes, but there are lots of reports of individual mics not working… replace and all is ok…
