MMM-AssistantMk2 terminating and not activating by voice after that.

BJ Duncan

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.

Thanks @Ivanov_d I found that link the other day and did try those solutions. They didn’t work for me.

However, I will try @Sean’s suggestion and will post back on the forum if it worked or not.

Thanks to everyone for your assistance. Very much appreciated.

mpg321

Woo-Hoo! - Thank you so much @Sean - That worked for me. I just reinstalled (or maybe just installed) mpg321 and it is completing the whole sentence without any cutoff. #veryHapppy :-)

The code I used was:

sudo apt-get -y install mpg321

Thanks to all that contributed to this post and I hope it helps others out just as it helped me.
