Hi Stefan,
mixer_control in /etc/mpd should be set to "Digital". You should use "amixer
scontrols" to check:
root@voyage-mubox:~# amixer scontrols
Simple mixer control 'DSP Program',0
Simple mixer control 'Analogue',0
Simple mixer control 'Analogue Playback Boost',0
Simple mixer control 'Auto Mute',0
Simple mixer control 'Auto Mute Mono',0
Simple mixer control 'Auto Mute Time Left',0
Simple mixer control 'Auto Mute Time Right',0
Simple mixer control 'Clock Missing Period',0
Simple mixer control 'Deemphasis',0
Simple mixer control 'Digital',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Down Emergency Rate',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Down Emergency Step',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Down Rate',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Down Step',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Up Rate',0
Simple mixer control 'Volume Ramp Up Step',0
Also check if DAC+ is set as hw:0, using the following commands.
root@voyage-mubox:~# cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [sndrpihifiberry]: snd_rpi_hifiber - snd_rpi_hifiberry_dacplus
snd_rpi_hifiberry_dacplus
For keyboard and bt speaker I really cannot help, I only have US keyboard and
DAC+.

Punky

Hi there,
... some time ago my voyage-installation got corrupted (presumably problems
with the SD-card), so I choose to re-install.
First of all I was somewhat surprised, that voyage-mubox-rpi is still Wheezy and not yet Jessie. - I remember vaguely
that I read on the list, that there was already an update to jessie. - Strange.
Moreover, I do not get German keyboard on the console. My issue of
# apt-get install keyboard-configuration
and the subsequent settings of a German keyboard does not lead to any changes, not even after a re-boot. - This is
strange too.
However, now we come to the real annoying issue: mpd volume control does not get working. Both outputs (HiFi Berry
DAC+ and Bluetooth Speaker) are working and can be toggled. However, now after the re-install I seem to have different
alsa-controls. - Namely:
# amixer controls
numid=6,iface=MIXER,name='DSP Program'
numid=3,iface=MIXER,name='Analogue Playback Boost Volume'
numid=2,iface=MIXER,name='Analogue Playback Volume'
numid=10,iface=MIXER,name='Auto Mute Mono Switch'
numid=11,iface=MIXER,name='Auto Mute Switch'
numid=8,iface=MIXER,name='Auto Mute Time Left'
numid=9,iface=MIXER,name='Auto Mute Time Right'
*numid=18,iface=MIXER,name='BT Speaker'*
numid=7,iface=MIXER,name='Clock Missing Period'
numid=5,iface=MIXER,name='Deemphasis Switch'
numid=4,iface=MIXER,name='Digital Playback Switch'
*numid=1,iface=MIXER,name='Digital Playback Volume'*
numid=16,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Down Emergency Rate'
numid=17,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Down Emergency Step'
numid=12,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Down Rate'
numid=13,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Down Step'
numid=14,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Up Rate'
numid=15,iface=MIXER,name='Volume Ramp Up Step'
The two bold marked entries are those of interest. In my /etc/mpd.conf I have
the following:
mixer_type "hardware"
[...]
audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "HiFi-Berry DAC+"
device "hw:0,0"
priority "FIFO:32"
# mixer_control "Digital Playback Volume"
# mixer_control "Digital" ### different name of control in
alsamixer
mixer_index "1"
}
audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "TempiTec BT-Speaker"
device "btspeaker_softvol"
# mixer_control "BT Speaker"
mixer_index "18"
[...]
As you can see in the commented lines, I have already played a bit around. - To no avail. The bluetooth speaker is
defined in my /etc/asound.conf as follows:
pcm.!default {
type hw card 0
}
ctl.!default {
type hw card 0
}
pcm.btspeaker
{
type plug
slave
{
pcm
{
type bluetooth
device 00:11:22:33:44:55
profile "auto"
}
}
}
pcm.btspeaker_softvol
{
type softvol
slave.pcm "btspeaker"
control.name "BT Speaker"
control.card 0
}
ctl.btspeaker
{
type bluetooth
}
However, mpd seems to try to access in both cases a mixer control called "PCM":
Jan 01 00:00 : inotify: Failed to register
/var/lib/mpd/music/media/local/lost+found: inotify_add_watch() has
failed: Permission denied
Jan 01 00:00 : Failed to open mixer for 'HiFi-Berry DAC+': no such mixer
control: PCM
Jan 01 00:00 : avahi: Service name collision, renaming service to 'Voyage
Music Player #2'
Jan 01 00:00 : avahi: Service 'Voyage Music Player #2' successfully
established.
Jul 04 15:22 : Failed to open mixer for 'TempiTec BT-Speaker': no such
mixer control: PCM
What am I missing here?
It must co-relate to the temperatures (outside 39°C, and no A/C in the house
...).
Thanks a lot in advance!
Stefan.
