Speech-friendly alsa mixer (sam) released, testers needed

[Willem van der Walt]

Hi Chuck,
Samuel is correct. You are clearly running python3 which require print() 
and some other stuff too.
You can check if you do not have python2 installed.
On my box, which python2 comes up with /usr/bin/python2
If it does on your side too, I would say the safest way is to force sam to 
use python2 by editing the very first line of the script, replacing
/usr/bin/env python with /usr/bin/python2 or whatever your path is.
Yes, you can change all print statements to the python3 way, but I do not 
know what else would break then.
HTH, Willem
