Issue with AIY voice hat mic test

I am trying to setup the AIY kit but keep running into the following issue when attempting to test the mic:

Initializing…
Starting audiotest

== STARTING TO RECORD, MAKE SOME NOISE! ==

Traceback (most recent call last):

self._stream = pa.open(**arguments)
OSError: [Errno -9996] Invalid input device (no default output device)

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Did you install it this way?
