My setup is HiFiBerry DAC2 Pro with Raspberry Pi 5 running raspberry pi OS is not playing any audio when hooking up to a speaker via 3.5mm jack:
tried configuring with this doc
https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/software/configuring-linux-3-18-x/
and it seems it is not working :c
could someone help me, how should I configure the config to get this working?
