Is it possible to get stereo sound through LineOut?
I used Nick A's 20241007 image to set up my Vontar H618 as an internet radio player with digital LED clock, controlled by IR remote, thanks to Nick A, MMorales and everyone on this topic.
Everything works fine, except it plays mono.
Is there any way to fix this?
MPD is used as the player and I have tried different options in audio_output section on mpd.conf - no stereo,
here the current working config:
audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "My ALSA Device"
device "hw:0,0"
format "44000:16:2"
mixer_type "software"
mixer_device "plughw:audiocodec"
mixer_control "digital volume"
}
By the way all the mixers are mono, here the result of "amixer scontext" command:
