guidol 274 Posted September 6, 2020 Author Share Posted September 6, 2020 @5kft @Hannes Worst it seems that current 5.8.7 is missing some modules for the analog audio (or they are named in a other way) than legacy 5.4.63, because with the legacy image analog-audio does work.

I do see much more sound-modules loaded than in current 5.8.7: Part of this difference could be that in the newer kernel more audio modules built in. What I'm seeing is that when I try analog audio it works fine - e.g., I don't see the "no soundcards" error, and I can play audio, etc. (e.g., I tested on a NEO Core2 but don't get any audio errors on any of the other boards either). So it seems that there is something different for the A64, and I agree with you it's likely the DT configuration. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So it couldnt be enabled Now the option is back and the DAC could now enabled again - so no more silence anymore BUT be advised to set AIF DA0 not higher than 17, because then the sound will very fast be distorted/overdriven So here is my kernel-information als alsamixer-setting for analog-audio (sun50i-a64-audio): _ _ ____ _ _ __ _ _ | \ | | _ \(_) / \ / /_ | || | | \| | |_) | | / _ \| '_ \| || |_ | |\ | __/| | / ___ \ (_) |__ _| |_| \_|_| |_| /_/ \_\___/ |_| Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) with Linux 5.9.1-sunxi64 No end-user support: built from trunk package bsp-kernel[20.11.0-trunk] u-boot[20.11.0-trunk] dtb [20.11.0-trunk] firmware [20.11.0-trunk] config[20.11.0-trunk] branch[dev] root@npi-a64-116(192.168.6.116):~# uname -a Linux npi-a64-116 5.9.1-sunxi64 #trunk SMP Mon Oct 26 18:14:55 +03 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux root@npi-a64-116(192.168.6.116):~# more /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)" NAME="Debian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="10" VERSION="10 (buster)" VERSION_CODENAME=buster ID=debian HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/" SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/" root@npi-a64-116(192.168.6.116):~# aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: sun50ia64audio [sun50i-a64-audio], device 0: 1c22c00.dai-sun8i-codec-aif1 sun8i-codec-aif1-0 [1c22c00.dai-sun8i-codec-aif1 sun8i-codec-aif1-0] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: sun50ia64hdmi [sun50i-a64-hdmi], device 0: 1c22800.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0 [1c22800.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 root@npi-a64-116(192.168.6.116):~# alsamixer Card: sun50i-a64-audio Value: Item: 83 Headphone [dB gain: -8.00] Mixer Headphone Source [Mixer] 15 AIF1 DA0 [dB gain: -24.00, -24.00] Stereo AIF1 DA0 Stereo [Stereo] Enable AIF1 Slot 0 Digital DAC 82 DAC [dB gain: 18.75, 18.75] Enable DAC Reversed 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Levent Erenler 1 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Thanks @guidol I am testing with pine64+ A64 kernel 5.9.5 i have same warnings in original dtb. I try many things but i could not figure whats wrong! I try to compare my dts file with yours.Do you have source, i mean dts files before compiled(easy to read) or is that https://github.com/megous/linux/tree/orange-pi-5.9 Thank you i try to gave more information UPDATE: I found a solution Edited November 11, 2020 by Levent Erenler solution 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hannes Worst 7 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 @guidolI wasn't able yet to try out the 5.9 kernel. I tested the dts file you posted as a dtb file on the present (lower) 5.8 kernel and found out it doesn't work to activate analog sound. aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: sun50ia64hdmi [sun50i-a64-hdmi], device 0: 1c22800.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0 [1c22800.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Device [USB Audio Device], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
