Hi,
I used hifiberry dac on rpi model B on Raspbmc for nearly one year now without issues.
Since last Raspbmc update, there is no sound on dac analog out.
I can select it in Settings/System/Audio..., but get no sound, no video sound, no music sound and no system sounds.
I get sound only via rpi's headphone jack.
After reading this:
https://www.hifiberry.com/forums/topic/hifiberry-dac-and-kodi-14-0/
I tried OpenElec 5.0 with loades modules, but without succes.
Then I tried your preconfigured image
https://www.hifiberry.com/files/images/openelec-4.1.6-preconfigured.zip
with edited hifiberry.conf, but with the same results.
Can I do anyting to check, if there are hardware oder soldering issues?
At this time I had two sd-cards, one with raspbmc (ver. 24.12.2014) and one with openelec-4.1.6-preconfigured.
Thank you
thom

HiFiBerry team Hi,
most likely this is a configuration issue only. You can check the hardware with our test image from here:

thom Hi Daniel,
thank you for reply.
It was a little late yesterday trying all those images.
Should have found your test image before.
I try it and report later.
Thank you

thom Hi Daniel,
test image runs, test tone playback ist displayed.
But no sound from the dac's headphone-jack.
Perhaps resoldering could help?
Thank you,

HiFiBerry team Does the test image display that the DAC has been configured?
It could be an issue with the solder connection on the P5 header, but also the headphone jack. As it is one year old, I think, that was still the DIY kit - right?
Best regards

thom Hi,
yes it is DIY.

simular to aplay -l. For me it seems to be ok.
So may be the headphone jack?
Thank you

HiFiBerry team Could be both, the headphone jack or P5. I would start testing P5.
Best regards

thom OK, I'll try this.
Thank you so far.

thom Hi Daniel,
I found it: It is a loose contact of the headphone jack of DIY-Dac-Kit.
I'll fix it, no problem.
Thank you very much for your help once more.
