The AUR on arch offers a package called python2-pyalsaaudio , which does the trick. I had earlier incorrectly used a similarly named package with the '2' omitted from the name, which threw me into python3 on arch. So, changing python to python2 on the first line of sam, then installing the correct wrapper from the aur, and it works correctly. Thanks to you and Samuel for the help. I'll be playing with it now from time to time. Chuck -- Here In Northeast Ohio, The Moon is Waxing Crescent (28% of Full) If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.
