Cirrus Audio Card and Jasper

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Has anyone got Jasper working with the cirrus logic audio card and a raspberry pi 2? I am trying to use spkout speakers and the DCIM microphones with Jasper.

 

I manually installed Jasper ontop of the cirrus audio card image as per the instructions from Jaspers website. The image was working fine before the install of Jasper.

 

I have replaced the asoundrc file with the one built by ragnar.jensen in this post http://www.element14.com/community/roadTestReviews/1810. However I am pretty sure this is meant for the original woflson audio card and the raspberry pi b.

 

When running jasper I get the welcome audio message played out through the raspberry pi headphone jack and then it fails with this error:

 

No handlers could be found for logger "cmuclmtk"

    self._stream = pa.open(**arguments)

Note I can now not get the cirrus audio card to record or play files using the usual aplay and a record commands. 

 

Any thoughts / comments / help would be hugely appreciated.

 

Tom
