I am currently working on a project using PyAudio and am receiving the above error when I try to run the following code:
import pyaudio
import wave
CHUNK = 1024
FORMAT = pyaudio.paInt16
CHANNELS = 1
RATE = 44100
RECORD_SECONDS = 5
audio = pyaudio.PyAudio()
stream = audio.open(format=FORMAT, channels=CHANNELS, rate=RATE, input=True, input_device_index=0, frames_per_buffer=CHUNK)
frames = []
for i in range(0, int(RATE / CHUNK * RECORD_SECONDS)):
data = stream.read(CHUNK)
frames.append(data)
stream.stop_stream()
stream.close()
audio.terminate()
filename = 'test.wav'
wf = wave.open(filename, 'wb')
wf.setnchannels(CHANNELS)
wf.setsampwidth(audio.get_sample_size(FORMAT))
wf.setframerate(RATE)
wf.writeframes(b''.join(frames))
wf.close()
wf = wave.open(filename, 'rb')
stream = audio.open(format=FORMAT, channels=CHANNELS, rate=RATE, output=True)
data = wf.readframes(CHUNK)
while data:
stream.write(data)
data = wf.readframes(CHUNK)
stream.stop_stream()
stream.close()
audio.terminate()
The desired output would be for the program to record a short 5 second clip and save it as a wav file named "test.wav".

I have tried to reinstall ALSA as well as change my ALSA configuration file which currently looks like this:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "null"
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 0
}
I have also tried listing the valid card indices available on my machine which gave me the index 0.
I am currently running Arch Linux and am using Github Codespaces via Visual Studio Code to run the program.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
