AttributeError: record_create_context

[bryanhughes]

Description I am trying to use pynput and getting the exception AttributeError: record_create_context

Platform and pynput version

System is Ubuntu 22.04: Linux mimzy-jetson 5.15.122-tegra #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 18 21:24:25 PST 2023 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux
Version 1.7.6

To Reproduce Unfortunately my problem is a little more complex. I have a SoundRecorder class that has a threaded function that does the actual recording. Here is the main block of code. I don't understand this exception.

if __name__ == "__main__":
    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG, format='%(message)s')
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
    # Vision
    parser.add_argument(
        "-d", "--device_name",
        type=str,
        default=None,
        help='Audio device name. e.g. python3 -m sounddevice'
    )
    args = parser.parse_args()
    if args.device_name is None:
        dname = 'default'
    else:
        dname = args.device_name

    # start recorder thread
    recorder = SoundRecorder(dname)

    def on_press(key):
        if key == keyboard.Key.space:
            logging.info(f'[{_FILE.stem}] - Started recording - {key}')
            recorder.start()
        else:
            logging.info(f'[{_FILE.stem}] incorrect character {key}, press space')

    def on_release(key):
        logging.info(f'[{_FILE.stem}] {key} released')
        if key == keyboard.Key.space:
            logging.info(f'[{_FILE.stem}] {key} stop')
            recorder.stop()
            return False

    while True:
        # monitor keyboard
        with keyboard.Listener(on_press=on_press, on_release=on_release) as listener:
            listener.join()

        if not recorder.is_recording():
            logging.info(f"[{_FILE.stem}] READY")
