TranscriptionOptions.__new__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'hotwords'

Since updating to WhisperX 3.1.6, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
[...]
  File "/app/transcribe/models.py", line 168, in init_model
    self.model = whisperx.load_model(
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/dist-packages/whisperx/asr.py", line 335, in load_model
    default_asr_options = faster_whisper.transcribe.TranscriptionOptions(**default_asr_options)
                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TypeError: TranscriptionOptions.__new__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'hotwords'

Looks like this should be fixed by #904 . Staying at 3.1.5 in the meantime.

If you want to keep running it with the latest version without having to wait for improvements to the WhisperX repository, you can use the following method:

asr_options = {
"hotwords":None
}

model = whisperx.load_model("large-v2", device, compute_type=compute_type, asr_options=asr_options)
