sounddevice.PortAudioError: Error opening InputStream: Invalid sample rate [PaErrorCode -9997]

I tried adding another sample rate to ~/.asoundrc to mic(i hate alsa config though and this shouldnt be neccessary in the first place), but it didnt work. Not sure i am doing the right thing...

The sampling rate of whisper is fixed to 16000.
I'm sorry but not sure the setting of alsa.

whisper alone works on my computer. perhaps i do not have a good enough graphics card? I have this: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/196603/intel-core-i51035g1-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3-60-ghz.html#tab-blade-1-0-4
