Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
MMM-AssistantMk2 terminating and not activating by voice after that.

Would this error only occur when saying the Activation word or would it time out after 10-15 seconds and show you the error. I also encountered a similar error message but not sure on what is happening either.
-
you might have not assigned the position of hotword module.

@blee1997 - It would not acknowledge or activate when I say “smart mirror”, “hey google” or anything. I am not even sure how to set that actual activating word/s. I assumed the default was “smart mirror”. But if I click the icon with the mouse it will listen to anything and interpret anything I say including the above mentioned words.
@Sean - Looking through the config.js it doesn’t appear to have position, so I will give that a go also.
Thanks for replying and I will keep at it and will reply once I have a solution.

So I’m almost there now. I realised that I had the incorrect data within my config.js file as I used the configuration for v1 rather than v2. I also added the same position as the MMM-AssistantMk2 with the config.js (thanks to @Sean for that ;-) )
My only issue now is that it still seems to terminate before completing the return request.
E.g.
Me: “Smart Mirror, what is the time?”
(OSD: “what is the time?”)
AssistantMk2: “The time is 8” - terminates
(OSD: returns back to original icon immediately after termination.)
– no ererors appear when I run this in dev mode –This occurs after each attempt regardless of the actual question. Could there possibly be a conflict with another module? Has anyone else come across this issue?

@BJ-Duncan thats funny… it used to chop off the beginning of the reply… !
-
@sdetweil Is there some setting I need to adjust to allow it to complete the request? Have I inadvertently changed a default setting somewhere?
-
So I have been testing random things and I have noticed that if I ask it to tell me a joke, it actually completes that request. If I ask it for any type of information (eg. weather, time, who invented the telephone etc) that’s when it cuts off.
Could it be something to do with sending a request online?
-
@BJ-Duncan no… he reworked the audio in V2 to behave better… but apparently hasn’t got it all working perfect yet…
I noticed before similar for you… long answers worked, short were clipped

This is a known issue and it is tracked in https://github.com/eouia/MMM-AssistantMk2/issues/161#issuecomment-496287957
You can try the various solutions proposed by the developer of the module. I have the same issue and I am waiting for a fix as well.

Today, I’ve reported from one of users, he says old mpg321 could clip the last part of response. try to update it or reinstall or, at least try other play program.
