When Clicking Speaker/Microphone Button Songrec Instantly Closes

[randomscumbag]

I am running EndeavourOS KDE, songrec installed through pacman, however when I try to click recognize from speaker, it instantly closes. I have tried installing from git, and discover store, and its the same result.

Yesterday I kept getting Shazam servers are unreachable, but every so often it would pick up a recording when left on. Today this is a new thing that just randomly started happening. Not entirely sure where to start or what to look for. Thanks in advance for any help I can get on resolving this.

Notes: when I run songrec in the terminal I am greeted with:

Failed to get default input config: BackendSpecific { err: BackendSpecificError { description: "ALSA function 'snd_pcm_open' failed with error 'EOPNOTSUPP: Operation not supported on transport endpoint'" } }
note: run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display a backtrace

I mostly run the app through the GUi, not entirely sure where to go with this information. Once again, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Alright after going through a similar post from December 10, 2023- i ran sudo songrec

and greeted with:

ALSA lib pcm_oss.c:397:(_snd_pcm_oss_open) Cannot open device /dev/dsp
ALSA lib pcm_oss.c:397:(_snd_pcm_oss_open) Cannot open device /dev/dsp

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1000:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:567:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave

Really not sure of what to do next. I have tried LTS and Zen and non LTS Kernel.
