Description

I have the sound sensor plugged into A0 and the LED plugged into D5. When I run the script nothing happens. I tested the LED with the LED blink script which worked as intended so I assume it is the sound sensor not working. I added some print statements to see where it gets hung up. There is no error and no output whether there is a sound level or not.

Research direction

Start with grove_sound_sensor.py and reproduce the report using the sound sensor on A0 and the LED on D5. Compare its behavior with the working LED blink script and trace where output stops. Done means identifying why no output appears and confirming the script responds to sound levels.
