[BUG] Exported TextGrid files less than wav files

[hirodeng]

Debugging checklist

[Yes] Have you updated to latest MFA version? [Yes] Have you tried rerunning the command with the --clean flag?

Describe the issue Steps:

docker pull mmcauliffe/montreal-forced-aligner:v2.2.17
docker run -it -v /mydata:/data mmcauliffe/montreal-forced-aligner:v2.2.17
# try to train and align an Arabic corpus
mfa train --clean -j 50 --single_speaker /data/mgb2/segments/train_mer20/ /data/dict/arabic_mfa.dict /data/model/arabic_accoustic_model.zip --output_directory /data/mgb2/aligned/train_mer20/

Results: There was a Permission denied error when exporting:

INFO     Exporting sat_4_ali TextGrids to /data/mgb2/aligned/train_mer20...             
 ERROR    There was an error in the run, please see the log.  

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/data/mgb2/aligned/train_mer20'

So I grant permission to the /data/ dir and rerun with:

mfa train --no_clean -j 50 --single_speaker /data/mgb2/segments/train_mer20/ /data/dict/arabic_mfa.dict /data/model/arabic_accoustic_model.zip --output_directory /data/mgb2/aligned/train_mer20/```

It seems successful. However, when I counted the number of textgrid files, it was only 279222, while the number of original wav files is 352416.

Could you tell me why there are missing textgrids? Thank you!

For Reproducing your issue Please fill out the following:

1. Corpus structure
   • What language is the corpus in? Arabic
   • How many files/speakers? 1 speaker, 352416 wav files
   • Are you using lab files or TextGrid files for input? lab
2. Dictionary
   • Are you using a dictionary from MFA? If so, which one? yes, the arabic mfa dict
   • If it's a custom dictionary, what is the phoneset?
3. Acoustic model
   • If you're using an acoustic model, is it one download through MFA? If so, which one?
   • If it's a model you've trained, what data was it trained on?

Log file Please attach the log file for the run that encountered an error (by default these will be stored in ~/Documents/MFA).

Same here. Got 14 TextGrids instead of 2176

same for me
