      @Bugsounet yep. Sure. Reading now. Installing tomorrow.and giving you feedback.
      If you need help in giving simple support (i.e. dumb Linux, not reading the wiki … Aka not real issue / first level support I can try to help you there :-))

          Started partial installation tonight…and I can say: what an absolutely beautiful and efficient installer! This is the best installer I have seen for a module.

          I’m running it on a fresh installation of Raspberry Pi OS and fresh installation of MagicMirror with no other modules installed.

          Ran into a small hiccup during the post-installation process, during audio configuration for the speakers. I can’t get any sound output.

          It’s late so I will fiddle and experiment more tomorrow but in case anyone else runs into the same problem before I figure out a solution, I’ll leave some data below:

          Sending audio output via aux cable from pi to monitor and can confirm audio is working when playing a youtube video.

          Interestingly I hear a beep during this part of the installation, but nothing after that:

          EDIT:
          I couldn’t sleep so I continued playing. I set audio speaker output to 1,0 which should be the correct configuration for me even though I couldn’t hear anything and I was getting an error. HOWEVER, in the next portion where I had to setup my microphone, I was able to hear my own voice playback.

          Ran through the sample config example, and everything works perfectly with the brief testing I have done. Beautiful work Bugsounet!

                    A2D was not working at first launch.
                    npm rebuild in the directory did the trick.
                    Working now

                      Hi
                      Curious it has been working for the first calls.
                      Now It answers on screen.
                      Not via speakers (but that could be for sure a problem with my audio setup)
                      The other thing is that the on screen google assistant prompt on top keeps spinning and no further interaction is possible.

                      Here is the debug log.
                      I can see the call is successfully created files inthe tmp directory and have scped them to my laptop and they are ok.
                      What changed in between was the tests are that I installed a2d .

                      While I investigate on my audio output to check if it works I post the log in debug mode
                      I see a suspicious “null” in volume in the log.
                      I tried a vlc lastResponse.mp3 and it was correctly output

                        Update: I reinstalled from scratch (again for a2d I had to do a npm rebuild, you may want to take note)

                        Still the same issue of assistant hanging after query:
                        I do the query, hotword recognized, query recognized, answer fetched, answer saved in temp and displayed on screen bottom but no audio feedback and gogle spin icon going.
                        After refreshing the screen goes again in “steady state”

                        Now I am sure I have a sound output issue.
                        Meaning that I can play sounds on the mirror via vlc but somehow the plugin cannot.
                        I guess that somehow the plugin does not receive a feedback of “play ended” from the output.
                        What I also noticed is that if I refresh the browser by vnc the mirror will go again in a waiting status.
                        Will continue checking
