Snips.ai Add-on shows no input with Respeaker 2 mic array connected

The title pretty much tells the story.

I recently wanted to see if I could replace my echos with snips.
Purchased the Respeaker 2 mic array since it was fairly cheap, just to try out snips.

I have it on a raspberry pi 3b running Hass.io .93.2

Upon starting the snips add-on, it’s showing no audio input available
-shown below with a screenshot from the add-on page

It’s also showing two available output devices but currently there is nothing other than ethernet and the respeaker plugged into the pi… shown below

Also showing this in Hass.io -> System -> Hardware if it helps

Anyone using the 2 mic or 4 mic array and have it working with the Hass.io add-on? Am I missing some key piece of config?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

edit: moved post to Configuration category

Hi @auto.neub i just connect my Respeaker 4 mic array and i have the same problem.
Did you solve in someway?

Thank’s,
Massimo

I didn’t end up getting this to work in hassio. I would still like to though.
I ended up running snips on my mac and then using an rpi with the respeaker as the device. I have it working but I haven’t set any intents up yet. I think it’ll be a winter project for me to get this for operational. My lawn care business doesn’t allow for a lot of tinkering in the summertime.

Let me know if you get it running in hassio. I’d much rather run it that way.
