I have a misconfiguration of my MPD daemon on Raspbian Buster with Raspberry PI 2B.
Alsa is configured as follows:
pi@Wecker:~ $ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: b1 [bcm2835 HDMI 1], device 0: bcm2835 HDMI 1 [bcm2835 HDMI 1] Subdevices: 4/4 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 card 1: Headphones [bcm2835 Headphones], device 0: bcm2835 Headphones [bcm2835 Headphones] Subdevices: 4/4 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 pi@Wecker:~ $ aplay -L null Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture) default output sysdefault:CARD=b1 bcm2835 HDMI 1, bcm2835 HDMI 1 Default Audio Device dmix:CARD=b1,DEV=0 bcm2835 HDMI 1, bcm2835 HDMI 1 Direct sample mixing device dsnoop:CARD=b1,DEV=0 bcm2835 HDMI 1, bcm2835 HDMI 1 Direct sample snooping device hw:CARD=b1,DEV=0 bcm2835 HDMI 1, bcm2835 HDMI 1 Direct hardware device without any conversions plughw:CARD=b1,DEV=0 bcm2835 HDMI 1, bcm2835 HDMI 1 Hardware device with all software conversions sysdefault:CARD=Headphones bcm2835 Headphones, bcm2835 Headphones Default Audio Device dmix:CARD=Headphones,DEV=0 bcm2835 Headphones, bcm2835 Headphones Direct sample mixing device dsnoop:CARD=Headphones,DEV=0 bcm2835 Headphones, bcm2835 Headphones Direct sample snooping device hw:CARD=Headphones,DEV=0 bcm2835 Headphones, bcm2835 Headphones Direct hardware device without any conversions plughw:CARD=Headphones,DEV=0 bcm2835 Headphones, bcm2835 Headphones Hardware device with all software conversions pi@Wecker:~ $ aplay sound.wav works, I can hear the sound on the headphone output.
MPD is configured and MPC is playing:
pi@Wecker:~ $ mpc play SWR3 MP3 128: SOUNDS mit Bernd Lechler [playing] #1/1 0:00/0:00 (0%) volume: n/a repeat: off random: off single: off consume: off pi@Wecker:~ $ mpc SWR3 MP3 128: Crying in the club / Camila Cabello [playing] #1/1 0:09/0:00 (0%) volume: n/a repeat: off random: off single: off consume: off But there is nothing on the headphone output. It's strange that the volume ist not available.
The relevant section in the mpd.conf:
# An example of an ALSA output: # audio_output { type "alsa" name "My ALSA Device" # type "pulse" # name "pulse audio" # device "hw:0,0" # optional # mixer_type "hardware" # optional # mixer_device "default" # optional # mixer_control "Headphone" # von Michael # mixer_control "PCM" # optional # mixer_index "0" # optional } .asoundrc:
pcm.!default { type asym playback.pcm { type plug slave.pcm "output" } capture.pcm { type plug slave.pcm "input" } } pcm.output { type hw card 1 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 } aplay is functional with the current configuration, but MPC not.
If I delete .asoundrc for the root user, mpc plays on HDMI. In this case the headphone output is missing for the root user. Only with the .asoundrc above for the root user, aplay plays on the headphone, but mpc not.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
