Raspberry Pi 3: Google Assistant Segmentation Fault

Question

I followed the instructions on https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/guides/library/python/embed/setup to setup Google Assisstant on my Raspberry Pi 3. Unfortunately, using the hotword command gives me a segmentation fault:

$ googlesamples-assistant-hotword --project-id xxxxx --device-model-id xxxxx
device_model_id: xxxxx
device_id: BE5AC9Dxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Segmentation fault

What I tried so far:

• Registering the device like in this post is successful, seg fault still appears: Google Assistant on Raspberry pi Segmentation fault
• My Google Assistant API is tuned on
• Without project id it works, as stated here: Google Assistant on Raspberry Pi 3 Segmentation fault

What I noticed is, that also my google assistant app on the phone says I have 0 local devices.

Answer 1

I had the exact same issue as you. I solved it by upgrading the library to v1.0.1, through running this in the env

python -m pip install --upgrade google-assistant-library==1.0.1

Based on talk from this issue on the GitHub for the Assistant SDK.
