Odroid N2 - new install - no sound

[bobby]

I cant get any audio from the 3.5mm jack. The sound preferences show “Builtin Audio” as detected hardware. The inxi -A output shows

Audio:
  Device-1: meson-g12a-dw-hdmi driver: meson_dw_hdmi
  Device-2: axg-sound-card driver: axg_sound_card
  API: ALSA v: k6.3.9-1-MANJARO-ARM status: kernel-api
  Server-1: PipeWire v: 0.3.71 status: active

I tried unmuting several controls in alsamixer. Also tried “aplay -D sysdefault:CARD=ODROIDN2 ”, no sound output. The amplifier and speakers are ok, they work when connected to my other PC

Thanks

Tip:

To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:

~~~
pasted text
~~~

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.

Instead of like this:

Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as descrribed above.

Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.

Please edit your post accordingly.

On this forum here you need to have Trust Level 1 (=TL1) to be able to post screenshots and links in-line.

That’s dumb! Why is that?

Well, that’s because on our old forum we got tons of screenshots of text, links to SPAM, PR0N and other things you don’t want on a forum, so all the new users are prohibited from posting links and pics because of a few bad actors.

Additionally

If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.

Fixed it !!!

As I am not allowed to post links or screenshots, I am posting the contents of a post originally in Armbian forums.

# Reset and re-initiate ALSA mixer states
rm /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
alsactl init
# Enable 3.5mm output
amixer -c 0 set 'TOACODEC OUT EN' 'on'
# Use I2S B as source for 3.5mm output, I2C A is somehow not usable
amixer -c 0 set 'TOACODEC SRC' 'I2S B'
# Use ALSA device 0 as input for I2S B
amixer -c 0 set 'TDMOUT_B SRC SEL' 'IN 0'
# Enable I2S B (SRC 2) on device 0 (_A)
amixer -c 0 set 'FRDDR_A SRC 2 EN' 'on'
# Set output channels for device 0 (_A)
amixer -c 0 set 'FRDDR_A SINK 1 SEL' 'OUT 0'
amixer -c 0 set 'FRDDR_A SINK 2 SEL' 'OUT 1'
amixer -c 0 set 'FRDDR_A SINK 3 SEL' 'OUT 2'
# Set master volume to 85%
amixer -c 0 set 'ACODEC' '85%'

Beware there is a nasty pop when the media starts playback
