i do not have gpu

i installed torchaudio

Did you install torchaudio with CUDA support and PyTorch without?

If so, you should to install the same accelerator support, i.e. the CPU-only binaries since you do not have a GPU in your system.

pip list | grep torch should show which binaries you have installed.

torch 2.8.0+cpu
torchaudio 2.8.0
torchvision 0.23.0+cpu

there not showing cpu at torchaudio

Thanks for confirming my guess.
Uninstall the torchaudio binary with CUDA support and install the CPU-only binary:

pip uninstall torchaudio -y
pip install torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu

thanks it is working now
