I have Jasper setup in my living room and always running to be used on demand. However, I run into the issue of "Jasper" being randomly recognized while my TV or music is on.


I'm using pocketsphinx as my passive STT and have been able to mitigate this a little by adding more words to the dictionary (found the sweet spot to be around 100 commonly used words). However, increasing the size of the dictionary has caused me actually saying "Jasper" to go unrecognized at times and although it has decreased the amount of times Jasper is triggered by the TV, it still happens fairly frequently.

I'm not sure the best solution to this, hoping that others have found a work around for this or an idea for one. One thought is that when there is constant background noises such as a TV or music that passive listening mode is put on pause until the background noise dissipates. Although, I'm not sure how this would be implemented.


Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
