Hello-Lucy Module Microphone not working
-
Guys can you please help me out! @Mykle1 @Linas123 @sdetweil @TheGeekfather
My rpi model 3b+
I have installed Hello lucy correctly, executed npm install.
My mic card and device number is 1,0
My mic and speaker both are working fine, tested: arecord test.wav
Whenever I start my MM and speak hello lucy , lucy don’t detect my voice he don’t respond.
So I tried:
In asoundrc file I changed “hw:1,0” to “plughw:1,0”
But the result is same lucy is not responding. -

Uhh, that is not how the dependencies are installed, according to the readme.

Guys can you please help me out with this @Mykle1 @Linas123 @sdetweil @TheGeekfather
i’m new in all of this so please take it easy with me … so i installed MMM-hello lucy module but after i installed it and got the config right and i put my mic card and speaker device and all set … but after i launched magic mirror it shows up the microphone icon and says error … and it hangs like this like there is no solution … it’s like lucy is not detecting or something … and before i say anything the error just shows up …
and if i installed MMM-voice and make it like MMM-hello lucy and MMM-voice together in the magic mirror, will it work ? and how will it be if i make both of them in my magic mirror?
I’d be so glad if anyone could help me out with this … -
@cq0q Lucy is MMM-Voice plus some stuff… no, no can’t do both
u need to walk thru the steps
arecord -l (for list)
will list the input devices
aplay -l will list the output devicesso, do
arecord test.wav
say something
ctrl-x to end recordingaplay test.wav
did u hear what you said…provides the mic works…
now, what device is it (from the arecord list)
is that where Lucy is configured ?Voice/Lucy use the sphinx voice reco library, which is ok, but sensitive to the voice model.
i stopped using it , cause it was accurate maybe 50% of the time… and I had to repeat myself a lot… -
@sdetweil yes i did that and i heared myself and made the config but the error still shows …
but what is sphinx voice reco library ? and how can i use it/install it ? and is it important for the module ?
and why you had to repeat yourself alot ? is the problem from the module itself or ?- do i need sphinx to use MMM-voice module as well or it’s just for lucy module ?
-
@cq0q the library is installed and used by mmm-voice and Lucy. u don’t have to do anything. that is the voice reco library they both use.
why repeat, cause it doesn’t so very well in my opinion
-
@sdetweil so what should i do to fix that problem ?
-
@cq0q I do not know. is the mic number in arecord -l the same in config.js for Lucy?
-
@sdetweil yes it is
-
well … it just fixed by itself … but as you said… i need to repeat myself and that’s bad actually …
what do you think of MMM-voice module ? is it better than this one ? or MMM-voice commands -
@cq0q mmm-voice has the same mic/library/reco problem

Magic!
@sdetweil is correct. Hello-Lucy is a stripped down version of MMM-voice (removed most of its functionality) and added the ability to hide and show individual modules and pages of modules. Simplified the process of adding any module to this functionality. Modules can share regions. Etc,
The recognition is average at best. Lucy (and voice) have trouble with certain accents, Norwegian in particular, (My friend can attest to that). Even I had some early trouble with non-recognition and/or false positives. I’ve learned ‘how’ to speak to Lucy after quite some time using her (3 years?). She also likes a completely quiet environment. With that said, she will never be as accurate, or work as well, as an Alexa or Google device.
Lastly, I don’t use Lucy on a Pi. The pi’s inherent delay is too aggravating and frustrating. Now, using Lucy on more robust hardware is quite a different experience. Very satisfying, for me at least.
