Respeaker 2Mic not recognized Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W

Hi, I tried using the image from the feature/initial-base branch as instructed.
Unfortunately, the compose/ folder is not recognized or mounted correctly after boot – Docker doesn’t see any projects and nothing runs automatically.

I created compose/respeaker-test/docker-compose.yml directly on the boot partition (while the SD card was mounted in a PC), but after booting the Raspberry Pi, the folder /compose doesn’t exist at all inside the system.

Additionally, audio recording doesn’t work either – arecord -l returns no devices, even though ReSpeaker 2-Mic Pi HAT is properly connected. PipeWire is running, but no audio input nodes are detected via pw-cli ls Node.

It seems like the audio overlay for ReSpeaker hasn’t been applied or the I²S driver is not active.

Could you please clarify:

  • How exactly should the compose/ folder be structured and recognized by the system?
  • Is there a working example of a docker-compose project that confirms ReSpeaker functionality?
  • Was the 2-Mic HAT tested successfully with this image?

Thanks a lot – the idea behind PiCompose is great, but currently I can’t get any Docker project or audio functionality working with it.
