      For some reason the wake word “Jarvis” will not work for me. Both “Alexa” and “Smart Mirror” do work when changed in the config file. Anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it? Thanks!

        After many attempts, I managed to install MMM-awesome-alexa, but I have a problem, no device from my account appears. I have tried saying “Alexa, search devices” it says it will search but then it says nothing.

        If I try to run routines they don’t exist either, however from the Alexa application for my mobile, I can run routines, control devices and also, in the list of devices I see that “Jonatan’s Magic_Mirror_Alexa” appears although as offline.

        It is as if it were an account with another profile, since it does not show devices or routines. But it works fine for the rest like asking the time and other information.
        I tried creating a new amazon account but the same thing happens.

        Does anyone know what can I do? 😔

            @rguardaya2008 look in the console window were u start magic mirror , npm start or pm2,
            if pm2, use the pm2 logs --lines=??? command (??? is 15 by default)

            also, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i,
            and select the console tab and scroll up…

            I made a script of the steps for the install , and there as a missing piece, which the scrip corrects
            u can download it, make it executable, and it will do the whole install steps… (but not the auth step u just did, so keep that)

                  rec FAIL formats: can’t open input `default’: snd_pcm_open error: No such file or directory” when i record…

                    @rguardaya2008 arecord -l
                    will list the devices

                    arecord -D plughw:card#:0 test.wav
                    speak some words
                    ctrl-c to end record
                    aplay test.wav, do you hear your words?

                    but if the mic is bad, nothing software can do to fix it…
