Hello, I bought a HiFiBerry DAC + with jack connector, for my media center (Librelec Kodi). Everything worked fine I followed the installation (modification of the file /flash/config.txt with the command dtoverlay = hifiberry-dacplus).
I started to fire a multiroom system and I installed Max2play on another rasperry, in order to create a client installed Xsqueez Kodi side with the addition of the line "dtparam audio = on" to the file config.txt. I also do this command
"mount -o remount, rw / flash".
Since the dac is no longer available in the sound output choices, there is hdmi, analog, bluethoot and ALSA snd_bcm2835 ........
Thanks for your help.

HiFiBerry team Hi,
I'm not sure if this is causing the problem, but you should disable the onboard sound (remove dtparam audio=on).

Julien Courtin Yes I saw that this command must be deactivated for the dac, but I need it for xsqueeze
-
HiFiBerry team I don't know if Kodi can deal with multiple sound cards. I don't understand why you would need it for your xsqueeze. Do you want to use the onboard sound?
Best regards,

Julien Courtin I am french and use google translation, I do not understand how to use the sound on board.
-
HiFiBerry team DO you want to use the onboard sound output or the DAC+ output?
-
Julien Courtin Yes
-
HiFiBerry team Which one of these do you want to use?
-
Julien Courtin The jack output
-
HiFiBerry team And Kodi on the DAC+? I'm not sure if Kodi can deal with this or if there is any option to tell Kodi to use the second sound card instead of the first one. I recommend to ask this in a Kodi forum.
Best regards,

Julien Courtin Ok i'll do that, thank you.
