Please look also post above: I realize my asoundrc file may be screwed since I did not complete on second install the sound output wizard successfully

@dvbit said in mmm assistant mk2:

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

could it be this: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1243

Edit: Nope - vlc outputs sound

IMPORTANT:
The Install script for the audio output was succesfull just the first time.
on second install I skipped the output part as I could not get through indeed.
However the input was working just fine. recorded my voice and could hear it.

Posting here my asoundrc file

pcm.!default {
  type asym
  playback.pcm {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "output"
  }
  capture.pcm {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "input"
  }
}

pcm.output {
  type hw
  card 0
}

ctl.!default {
  type hw
  card 0

Input is : kinect microphones
Output : TV speakers (directly through TV speakers)

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

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

and flawless install!
Thanks @Bugsounet

Installing . Flawless process

@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 :-))

@Bugsounet great!
Will be testing.
And reporting quietly .

Tx again. Merci

Ps: good I have exactly the same setup.
