Hi,

Nothing happens when pushing 'play'. Tryed 'pause' and 'play' again.
Tested various files (ogg, mp3).

fyi..
Got a 256 MB RPi, files on NAS.

What can I do? What information do you need?

Maybe you should setup a device which play on your DAC card etc.:

I have USB to I2S, TOSLINK, SPDIF coax module based on CM6631A and I must set which device is linked for playing:

In mpd.conf I set:
audio_output {

type "alsa"
name "Output"
device "hw:1,1" << Default is set hw:1,1
dsd_usb "yes"
}

You can check what is in your hardware with:
[root@runeaudio ~]# aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA], device 0: bcm2835 ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA]
Subdevices: 8/8
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Subdevice #1: subdevice #1
Subdevice #2: subdevice #2
Subdevice #3: subdevice #3
Subdevice #4: subdevice #4
Subdevice #5: subdevice #5
Subdevice #6: subdevice #6
Subdevice #7: subdevice #7
card 1: Audio [USB2.0 High-Speed True HD Audio], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Audio [USB2.0 High-Speed True HD Audio], device 1: USB Audio [USB Audio #1]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Audio [USB2.0 High-Speed True HD Audio], device 2: USB Audio [USB Audio #2]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Audio [USB2.0 High-Speed True HD Audio], device 3: USB Audio [USB Audio #3]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Best regards,

I had the same issue using a MyDac (async).
I fixed setting the usb sound card index as 0 and avoiding bcm2835 to get the 0 according to the Arch wiki
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad ... sound_card

I did change the value in mod.conf as well
Code: Select all
audio_output {

type "alsa"
name "Output"
device "hw:0,0"
dsd_usb "yes"
}


Had a quick listening: the quality has improved a lot compared to RaspyFi; sound is more defined.
I still have some pops on 192kHz/24, but 96/24 is very good. :D

Maybe I'm mistaken, didn't get the concept...is a mpd mandatory?!
I've got a NAS and a RPi. The RPi is connected to my stereo.

Are you using the jack analog output? It's not working in this release, as we said here:
This is a testing release, and it’s limited to a basic setup: it only features wired ethernet connection, it only plays music from Network Attached Storage and only outputs to USB audio interfaces. So you’ll have to wait next release for a full featured system with Wi-Fi support, USB sources, webradio streaming and management, and analogic or HDMI output. We have temporarily left out all these features to focus development on system performance and sound quality.


About the soundcard order, in the next release we are going to force USB DACs to hw:0,0, and give bcm2835 the 1.

Actually RuneAudio runs an mpd instance.

Totally missed that part. I'm very sorry!
Looking forward.
