I tried starting from the command line like this: pd -alsa -inchannels 0 -outchannels 2 -audiodevice 0 (went through audiodevice 0 - 20)
to see if selecting the sound card from the command line makes any difference. Still no sound! Audiodevice 1-4 (from starting with the command line) seemed to show up as the soundcard in the order as listed in the audio properties. I still have no clue how to get to the audio subdevice if it cannot be used as a multichannel output device. Is there any "hidden" command line option that allows selecting subdevices? If anybody here has an ASUS Tinkerboard and also has Jack running: Please check what is available from Jack. Thanks!
