@sdetweil Sorry if this duplicates but I couldn’t tell if the other reply went through.

Thank you for your reply Sam.

I tried your recommendation and ran export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1 and edited the ~/MagicMirror/package.json file to reflect the changes you mentioned above. However, now when I npm start within ~/MagicMirror I am seeing a black screen.

This is what is returned below after I let it run for a couple of minutes and exit.

Hello,

I am trying to run MMM-awesome-alexa on Magic Mirror through an Orange Pi LTS 4 running Kernel 5.15.76-rockchip64, Armbian 22.08.10 Jammy.

I followed the instructions to install MMM-awesome-alexa and have run into an issue after using the wake word “Alexa”. While Magic Mirror is running, using the wake word “Alexa” returns a white circle that appears which then starts making static popping noises from my speakers, while the white circle just remains on the screen as a smaller dot.

I tested my Microphone recording without any issues. I also tested speaker to listen to the recording. Both were working.

Below is the error message I am receiving. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
