Let's brainstorm..Setting up MinimServer to feed a USB DAC

[PeteManchester]

Hi Simon,

No that looks pretty standard for mplayer.

Depending on the version of wheezy sometimes some config changes are needed to get the USB DAC to work.

Probably the best test is just to plugin in a pair of headphone/input to amp in the Audio Jack whilst the USB DAC is also plugged in.
If you are still getting audio from the Audio Jack whilst the USB DAC is plugged in the most likely fix will be to modify the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf.

The line you should change is:

Quote:# Keep snd-usb-audio from being loaded as first soundcard
options snd-usb-audio index=-2

To be

Quote:# Keep snd-usb-audio from being loaded as first soundcard
#options snd-usb-audio index=-2

Then reboot your raspi and try again.

Let me know if that doesn't work..

Thanks,

Pete.
