Without installing hal I got errors from make (missing include files). So I did:

sudo apt install libmatrixio-creator-hal libmatrixio-creator-hal-dev

Is there a way to run pocketsphinx as daemon?

Hi,
Kindly help me with the below issue,
When i was trying to run the pocketspinx demo , the application is getting into an infinite wait state [i.e. Ready state] and does not respond to any of my voice commands.

I have followed exact steps provided in the documentation mentioned and also extracted the language models too..

am i missing something here...pls help..

Unfortunatelly pocketsphinx_demo hangs / freezes after a while of running. There are any logfiles I could attach here. But it happend first time after update to MATRIX HAL v0.3.3 .

After running the demo:

./pocketsphinx_demo -keyphrase "MATRIX" -kws_threshold 1e-20 -dict assets/6706.dic -lm assets/6706.lm -inmic yes -adcdev mic_channel8

I end up with the following error message:

ALSA lib pcm.c:2495:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM mic_channel8
Error opening audio device mic_channel8 for capture: No such file or directory
FATAL: "pocketsphinx_demo.cpp", line 158: Failed to open audio device

Any idea?
