Previously the Dac+ Zero on my Zero W worked just fine without touching the config.txt. Now there isn't an audio device any more.
If I add dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac
to config.txt the hifiberry appears again, but doesn't seem to work.
Odd is, that even if the hifiberry isn't installed at all, the device is listed.
What does dtoverlay
actually do?
Is there any newer guide than https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/software/configuring-linux-3-18-x
output with dtoverlay
set no matter if hifiberry actually is installed or not:
$ aplay -l

This is a Zero W with headless raspian buster kernel 5.10.17
I tried the hifiberry on my Raspberry 3B with librelec 9.2 installed, but I wasn't able to find out anything about audio devices. Seems librelec uses a different audio system? Could not find config.txt on libreelec either.
zero with hifiberry installed:
