title: Ubuntu 16.04 python3.5: PyAudio 0.2.9 or later is required (found version 0.2.8)
body: <p>that's my first question here.</p>
  
  <p>I have a problem with python3.5 and PyAudio on my Ubuntu 16.04:</p>
  
  <p><strong>What type of problem I have</strong><br>
  Currently I'm writing on a program that uses the speech_recognition library in python.
  And if I call my script (<code>python3 processor.py</code>), it says the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "processor.py", line 143, in &lt;module&gt;
    main()
  File "processor.py", line 132, in main
    with sp_reco.Microphone() as source:
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/speech_recognition/__init__.py", line 55, in __init__
    self.pyaudio_module = self.get_pyaudio()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/speech_recognition/__init__.py", line 88, in get_pyaudio
    raise AttributeError("PyAudio 0.2.9 or later is required (found version {0})".format(pyaudio.__version__))
  AttributeError: PyAudio 0.2.9 or later is required (found version 0.2.8)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Checking existing pip3 modules with <code>pip3 list</code> gave me the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PyAudio (0.2.9)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I don't know why speech_recognition says the found version is 0.2.8</p>
  
  <p>And it works if I type <code>python3</code> in the console and type in the shown python console <code>import pyaudio</code>
  My script works fully, if I use the <code>python</code> command</p>
