ALSA error running eiq_genai_flow with ASR

[herveld]

Hello,

I am getting the following ALSA error when running eiq_genai_flow with asr enabled:

./eiq_genai_flow -i kasr --output-mode text
Target Device: i.MX95

ASR model used: whisper-small.en
LLM used: danube-onnx

Both arecord and aplay are functional.

Here are the output of arecord:

arecord -l

Is there a way to configure the default audio card for eiq_genai_flow ?

Best regards,
