Usbridge: no sound from DAC

[lorello]

Hello, I have an Allo Usbridge setup and connected via etherrnet to my wireless extender. The device is present via Airplay menu on my apple devices and Audirvana as upnp and looks like the music is sent to the dac in both ways (ethernet flashing and Alsa output shows bitrate rate and so does my DAC, a Project Pre Box S2.), but no sound at all. Soundcard is set on usbdac.

Thanks for your help.

check the bit rate setting on Dietpi Allo web GUI - shairport-sync settings. 32 bit for Project Pre Box S2.

 

or some time the alsamixer set to mute state for the USB DAC.

 do ssh login ,  alsamixer -c 1 , press m key to toggle the sate , 00 for unmute , mm for mute state.

It seems that alsa mixer is set on mute by default. Enjoying a big step forward SQwise with usbridge!

Now I have an issue with Shairport: music drops regularly... While on Upnp with Audirvana everything is smooth, i can stream up to DSD256. Sparky runs on the latest version, 6.7. Is it possible to fix this?

Thank you for your update.

 

This mute issue resolved in Dietpi 6.8 version.

I have updated my Sparky to 6.8 today. Still have Shairport issues, same dropouts as before.

 

I'd like to know how to set the buffer size of my dac... No option easily accessible to set it on dietpi.

Shairport issue is fixed. Thanks rahul_kc.
