It seems that I messed with the amixer parameters. Now I can not even hear from the speaker test. Is there a way of reseting alsa parameters, not only the general audio volume?
I saw something like alsactl restore -P and removing '/var/lib/alsa/asound.state but it didn't work for parameters specifically to the DA830 EVM. Why the audio cape is recognized as a DA830 EVM? I suspect that the audio input is not working due to one of that parameters. Regards, Raphael.
