2 issues - sound and ui

tsawyer

I'm looking to see if this can be solved on this *hardware*
rasp pi 1st generation
rune v0.3-beta (29/10/2014)

issues: no sound and ui locks up
- sound: seems to play mp3 files but no sound heard on firefox and ie. I've enabled l25 but when I go to the md6 (sorry not hooked up at this point so I may be using the wrong name from the menu) 1 out of 7 times do I see the audio section there to match the audio selection. to me it seems I need to enable the module, bounce the pi then confirm I have the audio output selected. on the occasions I do see it, I've rarely been able to restart and keep it there. that brings me to my other issue

ui: once I start playing with my settings, I get the spinning/connecting that can go on 15 mins. I have to keep an ssh session open to bounce the device otherwise it stops responding. I may get to work on the configs for about 10 mins before I have to bounce it. I'm assuming that's not normal

my overall goal is to use my older pi to play the mp3s. this seems like this could hit the mark but I don't think the issues I keep running into should be happening

Hi tsawyer,

seems to play mp3 files but no sound heard on firefox and ie

You never will get sound from firefox or any browser with Rune.
Only your Pi is able to output sound on one of its interfaces (3,5mm, HDMI, external I2S DAC or USB DAC).

once I start playing with my settings, I get the spinning/connecting that can go on 15 mins.

You should update to our "Nightly Builds" see here.

thank you for the response. I really thought the project allowed that, well on the lan at least. well, I was looking at adding subsonic to the same device so guess I'll be starting on that sooner than I expected. hadn't really thought about adding the pi to my sound system a home but maybe I'll rethink that function.

I had not seen the update part, I'll definitely run an update on it later
