Hi @shivam_dhumal, you might need to take a look at this stackoverflow therad python - PortAudio library not found by sounddevice - Stack Overflow

You might need to install proper linux package to make it work

I could fix this by installing the portaudio library.

sudo apt-get install libportaudio2
