Currently no GPU miner or CPU miner will work (except the wallet miner).
Yes, the algo is lyra2v2, but no miner has currently implemented the new protocol which is needed to communicate correctly with the pools or the wallet.
You have to wait for an updated version.

See the official announcement:
....

STRAKS hashing algorithm is Lyra2REv2, which is only minable with CPU/GPUs. STRAKS will always support a decentralised asic resistant blockchain and will update the hashing algorithm if this one day should no longer be the case.  Note, however, due to the unique combination of SegWit, treasury reward, miner reward and Masternode payments, as of this writing, mining software and pools do not yet support STRAKS' coinbasetxn configuration. The only way to mine STRAKS, right now, is via the STRAKS' wallet.  Please refer to STRAKS’ github (https://github.com/straks/straks) and Discord if you require assistance.
