PyAudio prints ALSA warnings and does not work

Question

hey guys i\'m trying to run a basic python speech to text code. This is the code.

import speech_recognition as sr
r = sr.Recognizer()
with sr.Microphone() as         


        

Answer 1

if someone is still looking for getting rid of

ALSA lib pcm_route.c:867:(find_matching_chmap) Found no matching channel map

I just commented out all pcm.surround* lines in "PCM interface" section in

/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf

file and it works fine for me.
