RuntimeError test-wav2vec2.py

[molly-smith]

I get errors when trying to run huggingface example test-wav2vec2.py. First I get missing python package errors (datasets, jiwer). After installing packages I see:

RuntimeError: Error opening '/home/mosm/.cache/huggingface/datasets/downloads/extracted/e4488bdcc5e36bb8e49ff9b437db0cde3f99b8f604fabd9bc27b267ced1c7967/6930-75918-0000.flac': System error.

Hi @molly-smith,

Please try updating your transformers to the latest and the issue will be resolved. Thanks, Reza

I have 4.21.2 installed. Is that not the latest?

Hi @molly-smith,

Can you please try the setup instruction in the automatic-speech-recogintion README and see if that fixes it?

I was able to get it to run on my end, here's my output:

WER: 0.03383673158855752

Thanks, Lev

I still see the same error soundfile.LibsndfileError: Error opening '/home/mosm/.cache/huggingface/datasets/downloads/extracted/e4488bdcc5e36bb8e49ff9b437db0cde3f99b8f604fabd9bc27b267ced1c7967/6930-75918-0000.flac': System error.

Tested again w/ latest transformers version and this example is working okay now. Closing the issue.
