          It works when I get my mouse in the right spot and I click the icon, can talk to it and it talks back, just doesn’t pick up the hotwords :/

                @jmartin1009 if you start MM in developer mode,

                npm start dev
                

                and then select the console tab of the dev window

                do you see the notifications being sent?

                and u are not using MMM-Voice at the same time, right? only one module can have the mic at a time

                  seems to be an audio config issue .
                  Please paste your config.js file here
                  and the outputs of the following commands :
                  aplay -l
                  arecord -l

                  Ejay

                    @sdetweil I’m not using MMM-Voice, I’m using MMM-Assistantmk2 and MMM-Hotword, hotword pics up the word to wake the assistant and assistant takes care of the rest. I’ve been able to talk to the assistant but hotword doesn’t wake when I say the wakeword.

                      I do use PulseAudio because i use the PS3 eye mic, which uses a mic array that alsamixer doesn’t like, but it works when i talk to the assistant, Hotword just doesn’t hear my wakewords.
                      Here is the output for arecord -l

                      It seems to work whether i use “plughw: 0” and “plughw: 0, 1”.
