Thanks Colin! This means that the I2C protocol running on pins P9_19 and P9_20 (19 SCL, 20 SDA) is required to complete before the BBB will send audio data on P9_28 (AUD_DOUT). Without a cape, I don't see how I can get audio data... perhaps I can use an Arduino and the Wire.h library to act as

On beaglebone black (Debian3.8.13-bone68) I ran tests with and without an audio cape (rev B) and confirm that speaker-test -D default:EVM does not output anything on P9_28 without the audio cape connected. With audio cape connected I do see ouput on P9_28. -- For more options, visit http://bea

Just an update on this: I used a scope without a cape (because I don't own one, and estimated backorder on MCM is 52 days). I verified no life on AUD_DOUT P9_28, but I _do_ see life on pins 19 and 20, which are the I2C SDA and SCL lines. As soon as I commence sound output, the SCL goes live w

Colin, That would be phenomenally helpful! Do you have a scope? I'm curious if you see any life on pin 28 of the P9 header with and without a cape. I suspect you will see data with the cape (because the DAC on the cape board is talking to the BBB's processor), but nothing without it. I unfor

If it'd help I could run same tests for you with and without audio cape and test the theory - I am running bone68 but suspect results will be the same - it'd be good to know if you can see output or not. On Saturday, July 4, 2015 at 10:19:59 AM UTC-5, jrb...@colorado.edu wrote: > > > Latest thou

Latest thoughts on this: I think perhaps the problem is that I should not expect to see serial data from P9_28 (I2S serial data out) without an actual Audio Cape. There are probably I2C (control) and I2S (audio content) requirements, such as clocks and so forth, that are required before the B

Well, I'm perplexed then. I have bone47 on two different BBB's and both have been configured the same way: compile dts and put the dtbo in /lib/firmware, disable HDMI (and HDMIN), add BB-BONE-AUDI-02 to the capemgr file so it gets added at startup. But I don't see anything coming out of the AU

I don't know when the change happened but am pretty sure when I was using bone47 I didn't have issue with kernel included audio cape. When I upgraded (I'm now using bone68) I found that audio cape was included so compiling your own and placing in /lib/firmware made no difference as it was alread
