mmm assistant mk2

dvbit

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

Hello,

First of all, thank you for not stopping your work on this module which is of high quality.

I tried to install the new assistant. I followed the wiki. However, I have a problem.
Indeed, when the mirror is launched, I find myself with the following message:

[2020-06-01 14:04:54.256] [LOG]    [ASSISTANT][ERROR] token.json file not found

However, I followed the WIKI well and applied the following command:

(env) pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant $ ACCESSTOKEN=ya29.a0AfH6SMABBPj590X_itMQG616F8QpxddhPVuSXCE4qvZs6znHKbG2n5RggszFMdl0V5HP0lf956H9O7VHlbuGuMxSzkU3pMkdbpFxs485NwfXYl9T7hfLzB0EOPlRTwcifZW-8rIUlZlWXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Do you have any idea about this problem?

Thanking you in advance,

@dvbit try this:
launch it in root directly in RPI terminal (not ssh)

cd ~/MagicMirror
sudo ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js --no-sandbox

give me result

A Former User

@chris: token.json file must be located in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/token.json

sdetweil

@Bugsounet u can also run the fixsandbox script from my repo
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

if they use my installer I fix it… otherwise they either need the --nosandbox or run my script

A Former User

sam, i suspect a bug in electron

chown root and chmod 4755 ?

sdetweil

@Bugsounet yes, what my script does…

not a bug, new feature

A Former User

yes but i don’t understand why … with pulseaudio there is no sound but with root it’s works …

There is a permission missing somewhere
