AttributeError: module 'cec' has no attribute 'init' ubuntu 21.10 rpi4

When I run this script

#!/usr/bin/python3

import cec
import uinput
import time

u = uinput

KEYMAP = {
   0: u.KEY_ENTER,
   1: u.KEY_UP,
   2: u.KEY_DOWN,
   3: u.KEY_LEFT,
   4: u.KEY_RIGHT,
   9: u.KEY_HOMEPAGE,
  10: u.KEY_MENU,
  13: u.KEY_BACK,
  44: u.KEY_HOMEPAGE,
  68: u.KEY_PLAY,
  69: u.KEY_STOP,
  70: u.KEY_PAUSE,
  75: u.KEY_FASTFORWARD,
  76: u.KEY_REWIND,
 103: u.KEY_HOMEPAGE,
 113: u.KEY_BLUE,
 114: u.KEY_RED,
 115: u.KEY_YELLOW,
 116: u.KEY_GREEN
}

cec.init()
device = uinput.Device(KEYMAP.values())

print("Ready")
keystate = None

def onkey(event, key, state):
    assert event == 2
    global keystate
    if state == 0 and keystate is None:
        print("Got Key", key, "state", state)
        keystate = "down"
        device.emit(KEYMAP[key], 1)

    if state > 0:
        if keystate is None:
           print("Got key", key, "state", state)
           device.emit(KEYMAP[key], 1)

        print("Key {0} up after {1}".format(key, state))
        device.emit(KEYMAP[key], 0)
        keystate = None

cec.add_callback(onkey, cec.EVENT_KEYPRESS)

while True:
 time.sleep(9e9)

I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mycroft/.config/autostart-scripts/cec-daemon.py", line 31, in <module>
    cec.init()
AttributeError: module 'cec' has no attribute 'init'

I have Ubuntu 21.10 rpi4 the libcec6 libcec-dev and python3-cec packages installed.
