      I’ve been trying to implement the Google Assistant module. For my mic, I would like to use the mic of my webcam, but it doesn’t seem to show up when I use

      arecorder -l
      

      Any help would be appreciated

        @avanloo01 its

        arecord -l    (lower case L, as in list)
        

        do this

        arecord test.wav
        

        speak some words
        press ctrl-c to stop arecord,
        then

        aplay test.wav
        

        do you hear what you said?

        if so, then mic & speaker are working, if not, adjust and repeat…

          I’ve just found out that the webcam doesn’t have a mic 😅.
