@monilshah You are far away from having it work my friend even if you could tackle this new issue you ran across. We had not even heard about this before now but been working at it long before October 22.
Check this two threads out and read them thoroughly from the beginning and maybe with some luck who knows what may happen…it didn’t happen for me… still going at it though :)

@monilshah Are you sure you have done the other steps correctly before the speechAssets part?
@Monilshah I dont think you need to clear anything in that box just drag and drop the contents of speechAssets to it and that part will work.
However you will find out that the actual module wont work without modifications that i have not been able to figure out how to make…some people have gotten it to work but the majority have not. I have configured face recognition and a bunch of other modules but this is the only one i have not been able to and it is exactly what i need

@strawberry-3-141 I know i have ALSA on my system but i don’t recall ever having to install Pulseaudio on my system. Is it required by this module? pulse audio that is …can i install it??

@strawberry-3-141 Hello there,
I tested the mics following the steps on the above site and my microphone works just fine no errors the audio is good coming from the speakers and clear i do get a warning that does not affect anything that says:
“Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 44100Hz, got = 48000Hz)
please, try the plug plugin”
but it does not affect the audio or the command actually when i try another mic it does not give me that error at all however the audio is not nearly as good.
So to recap the mic works it records a test file and gives no errors.

@strawberry-3-141 Thank you so much for replying back to me :)
Did what you asked and on the MM itself it says Error Undefined but on the debug log everything sems to go fine until the very last sentence that says this:
“Error opening audio device plughw:1 for capture: Connection refused
FATAL: “continuous.c”, line 245: Failed to open audio device”
When i run “cat /proc/asound/cards” i get this
“0 [ALSA ]: bcm2835_alsa - bcm2835 ALSA
bcm2835 ALSA
1 [Set ]: USB-Audio - USB Headphone Set
USB Headphone Set at usb-3f980000.usb-1.5, full speed”
And in the config.js file obviously i have selected the only mic i have right now number 1 USB headphone set and i know it is working just fine.
Let me know how what does that tell you
and again thank you

@strawberry-3-141 OK i am trying to install this module and i have read all forum posts on this thread.
I did have AlexaPi installed and working previously and as i can tell from other users this installation ruins it but i could live with that. However MMM-voice keeps giving error 1 on its error log even after deleting node modules, pocketsphinx and sphinxbase and reinstalling again. The icon on MM goes briefly Ready Select Mode than back to Error how do i fix that like i said i have read everything all installations go perfectly all 1 through 5 out of 5. what am i doing wrong??
The other question is… I also want to use 2 microphones ideally and both apps… i was using AlexaPi flawlessly with one of the mics and i wanted to use a second mic for MMM-voice since it gives you the option to select which one you want to use do you think that is doable? is it meant for that??
What can i do to use both AlexaPi and one of the MMM voice modules so i can control the display and show and hide certain modules both on the same Rpi.
I tried MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall already but i am stuck half way with no one to help me through the end and it is an extremely difficult module to fully install.
Anyhow any help will be greatly appreciated

@OceanK Any news my friend??? I am so upset that we are not progressing with this module…it is exactly what i need and we can not get it to work.
I am going to try to mess with it a bit next week and see whats up

@StrIIker LOL OK well good luck too you … it is a fun and slightly addictive project :)
Myself and a bunch of other fellows in here have gotten quite further down the road …
it is very fun and worth it… however there is one catch… we all have the PIRs and the LEDs around the mirror working etc etc… or the Spotify and bunches of other utility modules but one thing we can not seem to figure out is how to get Alexa (which is present and working on the Mirror itself) to control the actual Mirror such as this https://github.com/joanaz/MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall and the actual skill which is this … https://github.com/joanaz/MirrorMirrorOnTheWallSkill
It is the only way to total control and customization of your Mirror… and the further you dig the more you will end up looking at the above as we all are :)
any how lets keep chatting

Does anyone know how to use 2 USB microphones on 1 Raspberry Pi to control 2 separate modules one for AlexaPi outside MagicMirror that i have working right now and works fine and the other for a voice control module for MagicMirror to just turn on and off MM modules.??
Meaning how can you assign a USB id of one mic to one module and the other usb id of the other mic to the other module so they can both be listening at the same time for their own hotwords without having resource conflict??
Thank you
