I am using the Odroid N2, and I have recently switched from the Hardkernel-supplied Ubuntu Mate, to an Armbian version with kernel 5. I was hoping to combine a homemade NAS using CPU accelerated LUKS-encrypted disks with a Kodi mediacenter, and the N2 seems to have excellent properties to do both.
Installing these Armbian functions immediately fixed a few problems that Hardkernel's Ubuntu had (unstable BTRFS driver, and I also see no sign of the USB3 disconnect problems that Odroid used to have).
However, this version has a problem to recognize audio hardware - in the GUI, I am unable to select HDMI audio or analog audio.
- For the choice of "Default Server", I see the following options:
<an account on a LibreElec box running elsewhere on my LAN>
- For the choice of "Default Sink", I only get "Dummy Output", regardless of the above choice I make
For reference:
- Audio on the Hardkernel edition works normally. I can choose analog or HDMI audio, and when I choose HDMI audio, the sound comes out of my monitor speakers.
- The Hardkernel used kernel version 4.9, where I am now using kernel 5.4. I tried both Bionic Desktop with kernel 5.4, and Buster Server with kernel 5.4 where I installed the GUI from armbian-config.
Is this a known problem (e.g. with kernel 5.4), and/or is there a way I can troubleshoot this?
