More details are needed for detail answer.
you can set record.verbose: true for checking your mic works properly. But before that, you should confirm there was any other error to issue. Check your error log.

@sean arecord: main:788: audio open error: Device or resource busy and where is my error log?

A Former User

@citizendevpi
Your system seems not properly configured to use audio device. that might be not the issue of module itself.
And you can see the log with

pm2 log mm #or your registered process name for MagicMirror

or
stop pm2 then npm start dev in your MM directory.

Anyway,
You should confirm to check your audio device card and name, and your RPI should be able to run below commands (or similar)

arecord -d 5 test.wav

or

arecord --device plughw:1,0 -d 5  test.wav

(plughw:1,0 might be different. You should find your proper device card and number with arecord -l)
