Yannick Adam Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Hi! Unless mistaken, I believe audio is missing from 3.5mm jack on the RockPi4b. To enable it, I had: - To update the dts by adding definitions close to the RockPro64 (some available starting in mainline 5.6) - Change them to use I2S0 instead of I2S1 - Enable audio-graph-card in kernel config (I also removed some audio modules which issued warnings/errors during boot) - Patch es8316.c to prevent a kernel panic during boot (found in Ayufan's latest mainline kernel for RockPro64) yannick@rockpi-4b:~$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: rockchiprk3399 [rockchip,rk3399], device 0: ff880000.i2s-ES8316 HiFi ES8316 HiFi-0 [ff880000.i2s-ES8316 HiFi ES8316 HiFi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: hdmisound [hdmi-sound], device 0: ff8a0000.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0 [ff8a0000.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 And finally, activate the proper DACs with amixer: amixer set 'Right Headphone Mixer Right DAC' on amixer set 'Left Headphone Mixer Left DAC' on Would you like a PR for this? Cheers, and thanks for your work on Armbian! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you listen with headphones very quietly to catch some 'noise' if any on this output? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yannick Adam Posted April 12, 2020 Author Share Posted April 12, 2020 The sound quality cannot be compared to the RPi3. It is much better. Obviously an external DAC would give even better sound, but I am trying to reduce the BoM for an industrial project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering how you found (defined) these parameters ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
