[Solved] No output on SPDIF with external USB card

Postby Der Vogel » 03 May 2014, 18:49

Hi, I have tried Rune Audio 0.2 with my new external sound card but I have no sound.

My installation is: RPI -> USB hub -> soundcard -> SPDIF -> hifi system.

The sound card is working fine with my laptop (flac with different quality).
The USB hub is working fine.
Operations done after the fresh installation of Rune Audio:
  • Code: Select all
    pacman -Syu
  • add a new ext4 partition on the SD card on the remaining space (~29Gb) containing my music
  • modify /etc/fstab to use UUID and mount the new partition in /mnt/MPD/Musique

I tried the command
Code: Select all
speaker-test -c 2
without success.
Here the debug information from RuneAudio:

And the output of the command "lsusb":

Rune Audio looks really promising, I can't wait to have it working!
Thanks in advance for your help!

Edit: I solved the problem. It seems that using the command "reboot" caused my sound card to mute. See the bug report there.
By the way, I can confirm that update Archlinux and store the music on the sd card, as I describe below, works!

Hi, I have edited my previous post, precising that I use a USB hub and adding the output of "lsusb".
By the way, the sound card has its own power supply so the problem should not be limitation of power via USB.
Here below the debug info and the lsubs output without the usb hub:

Re: [Solved] No output on SPDIF with external USB card

I solved the problem. It seems that using the command "reboot" caused my sound card to mute. See the bug report there.
By the way, I can confirm that update Archlinux and store the music on the sd card, as I describe belfore, works!
Can't wait for the next release of RuneAudio!
