Hi Chris.

Thanks for your report of another I2S DAC working with piCorePlayer.
Could you please show us what your exact start string is for
Squeezelite. I mean what -a and -o option did you choose.

As you have noticed I have loaded the HiFiberry modules at start up. If
you want to remove it, then you will need to edit the /opt/bootlocal.sh
file. In later versions I will probably only load the module if it is
needed, especially when/if more I2s DAC's get supported. But Hifiberry
is the only I2S-DAC that I have access to, and therefore the only one
supported (It was a gift from Daniel from Crazy-Audio).

As far as I understand I2S DAC's are not able to report back to the
system whether they are present or not (so this is different from the
USB-DAC's), so therefore aplay will see it if the module is loaded no
matter if anything is connected via I2S or not.

Cheers
Steen
