Installed with npm and I'm getting this error. Installing libasound2-dev doesn't resolve the issue. Ubuntu 18.04

$ node -e "require('speaker')"

Similar issue here, if I require('speaker') with nothing else I get:

[../deps/mpg123/src/output/alsa.c:165] error: cannot open device default
node: pcm_params.c:2354: snd_pcm_hw_refine: Assertion `pcm && params' failed.

I configured a default alsa device, and heard audio using omxplayer. It seems generally bad that node-speaker is attempting to access the device at a module level. This should probably be moved to a constructor or other instance method.
