Only one side (speaker) of the visualizer is working with stereo enabled. Using ALSA fifo file method.

Hey there,

I am using the ALSA fifo file method to get my audio into ALSA, but I'm noticing that only one side of the visualizer is working with visualizer.

This is what it looks like image

This is also happening when I run the speaker test command, which switches back and forth to each speaker. The sound is coming out of each speaker individually but the bar is still only coming on one side. The speaker-test command I'm using is speaker-test -D main -c 2. I have noticed it's very choppy when using speaker-test.

My /etc/asound.conf file looks like this.

pcm.main {
  type plug
  slave {
    pcm {
      type file
      slave.pcm "D10s"
      file "|safe_fifo /tmp/audio"
      format raw
      perm 0777
    }
    format S32_LE
    channels 2
  }
}
pcm.D10s {
    type hw
    card 2
    device 0
    channels 2
    format S32_LE
}
pcm.!default {
  type hw
  card 0
}
ctl.!default {
	type hw
	card 0
}

My ~/.config/vis/config file looks like this.

visualizer.fps=10
audio.sources=mpd
mpd.fifo.path=/tmp/audio
audio.stereo.enabled=true
colors.override.terminal=false
