Hi - I'm hoping that one of you knowledgeable regulars might be able to
help with some playback issues on Vortexbox 2.4 on Fedora 23.

I have rebuilt my VB host with ver 2.4 but cannot for the life of me get
the player configured correctly from the ALSA device list and output to
the async USB DAC on my Oppo BDP-105.

APLAY -L shows: -


Code:

    [root@vortexbox ~]# aplay -L

I was previously using a VB GUI player configuration of
iec958:CARD=Device,DEV=0 even though the output was via USB.  This does
not work on VB2.4 nor does any other audio output device config that
I've tried from the above lists.

Some will pass through to LMS as expected with the correct player name
but I get no sound output.

I am using the same hardware as I was previously running Vortexbox 2.3. 
I dug out an old SSD that used to be the VB boot device and it played
correctly first time using the player configured as
iec958:CARD=Device,DEV=0

I have tried manually playing a WAV file using 
Code:
--------------------
    aplay -v -D default /storage/vb/Alarm05.wav
--------------------
 which shows all the file details on screen for the length of the file
but again, no sound output.

I previously had issues when I first started using Vortexbox where the
levels would be muted in ALSAMIXER.  I've checked these and they are set
to 100%.

I have trawled through many posts looking for tools and hints that might
help me work out what the issue is but no luck so far.

Is anyone able to offer any suggestions as to further troubleshooting
tips?

Thanks in advance
