AssertionError: Audio source must be entered before listening, see documentation for ``AudioSource``; are you using ``source`` outside of a ``with`` statement?

1. (How do you make the issue happen? Does it happen every time you try it?) every time i run this code
2. (Make sure to go into as much detail as needed to reproduce the issue. Posting your code here can help us resolve the problem much faster!)
3. (If there are any files, like audio recordings, don't forget to include them.)

Expected behaviour

it should be listening my voice command

Actual behaviour

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'close'
  File "C:\Users\atif\Documents\PYTHON\JARVIS.py", line 20, in take_command
    audio = rec.listen(source)
            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It states that the source is used outside of the with scope. Are you sure that the try/except block and the rec.listen(source) are inside the "with" block? Its just unclear because of the formatting on github :0

I have it like this and it works.

import pyttsx3
import speech_recognition as sr

engine = pyttsx3.init("sapi5")
voices = engine.getProperty("voices")

def speak(audio):
    engine.say(audio)
    print(audio)
    engine.runAndWait()

def take_command():
    rec = sr.Recognizer()

    with sr.Microphone() as source:
        print("listening")
        rec.pause_threshold = 1
        audio = rec.listen(source)

        try:
            print("RECOGNIZING...")
            words = rec.recognize_google(audio,language="en-in")
            print(f"user said: {words}")

        except Exception as exp:
            speak("say that again please...")
            return "none"
        return words

if __name__ == "__main__":
    take_command()

@JeziahAnon Thanks. I added python syntax highlight
