Hi I'm trying to run this simple script:
import speech_recognition as sr
r=sr.Recognizer()
with sr.Microphone() as source:
print "Say something."
audio = r.listen(source)
print r.recognize_sphinx(audio)
It's practically a copy of the example in the speech_recognition tar file, but I get this output:

IOError: [Errno -9997] Invalid sample rate
It obviously says that the problem is an Invalid sample rate but it also talks about Evaluation errors and being unable to find definitions like its trying to use the wrong microphone or something. It's hard to find any docs on this so if someone could help me on even how to define a sample rate if that's even the true problem, that would be awesome!
