[Python] Coqui-ai TTS in Jenkins job

Trying to use Coqui-ai TTS in Jenkins job, and Im getting below err:

This is the code which i use:

from TTS.api import TTS
import torch
import io
import argparse

# arg parser
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('--input_text_file_path', dest='input_text_file_path',
type=str, help='Add input_text_file_path')
args = parser.parse_args()

# Save the original torch.load function
_original_torch_load = torch.load

# Define a new function that forces weights_only=False


def custom_torch_load(*args, **kwargs):
if "weights_only" not in kwargs:
kwargs["weights_only"] = False
return _original_torch_load(*args, **kwargs)


# Override torch.load globally
torch.load = custom_torch_load


def import_text_file(file_name):
with io.open(f"{file_name}.txt", 'r', encoding="utf-8") as file:
return file.read().replace('\n', '')


# TTS with on the fly voice conversion
api = TTS(model_name="tts_models/pl/mai_female/vits")
api.tts_to_file(
text=import_text_file(args.input_text_file_path.replace('/', '_')),
speaker_wav="target/speaker.wav",
file_path=f"{args.input_text_file_path.replace('/', '_')}.wav"
)



At the same time the code is working normally when i trigger it from the cmd, just when i use jenkins the issue show up.

Not able to find any proper workaround for this.
