Unable to load module on m1 mac, reports VLC not found #14

I am trying to use the Audic module from a nodeJS application running with a commonJS script. I have managed to get it to load with the following code, but when I try and use it I get the following error, despite haveingVLC installed in the Apps folder and 'brew install vlc' reporting it is already installed.

Code to load it: // Load sound library Audic = await import('audic') Audic.playAudioFile("notification.mp3")

vlc-static is not detecting the installation because it doesn't know where to look for the vlc binary. See what happens when you do this: https://superuser.com/questions/997673/how-to-run-vlc-command-in-mac-terminal
