Hi there!
I bought the 6 microphone array and followed the steps to install the voicecard. Due to the kernel failure, I had to use the sudo ./install.sh --compat-kernel in order to complete the installation. Although, after trying the arecord -L command, this is what the shell shows:
pi@raspberrypi:~/seeed-voicecard $ arecord -L
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
default
ac108
dmixer
ac101
so that it does not recognise the ALSA voicecard, and instead uses the system default b1, as shown bellow:
pi@raspberrypi:~/seeed-voicecard $ aplay -L

How can I change it to ALSA and make the array work? Thank you for your time
