Hi there.
The other day I ran once more into a strange behavior of the Piano21. That DAC is a little tricky! Especially the Dual-Mono related controls get mixed up once on a while. Getting back to normal is not that easy. Unfortunately pCP doesn't cover a proper DAC initialization if things get messed up. That's why I wrote myself a Piano21 init script: Code: -------------------- #!/bin/sh # # script to initialize alsamixer settings for # Allo Piano 2.1 in Dual-Mono config # # written by soundcheck for # pCP >4.1 # Rev 1 - Mar-01-2019 # ################################################################### [ $(whoami) != root ] && { echo "*** Please, run as root!"; exit 1; }; pgrep squeezlite >/dev/null && pkill squeezelite rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state CARDNR="$(cat /proc/asound/cards | grep "\[PianoDACPlus" | awk -F " " '{print $1}')" alsactl init $CARDNR >/dev/null 2>&1 amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Dual Mode' 'Dual-Mono' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Subwoofer mode' 'None' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'DSP Program' 'Ringing-less low latency FIR' amixer -q -c $CARDNR sset 'Digital' unmute amixer -q -c $CARDNR sset 'Digital' frontright,mute amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Digital' '100%' amixer -q -c $CARDNR sset 'Subwoofer' unmute amixer -q -c $CARDNR sset 'Subwoofer' frontleft,mute amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Subwoofer' '100%' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Master' '100%' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Analogue Playback Boost' '0%' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Analogue' '100%' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Deemphasis' 'off' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Volume Ramp Down Rate' '1 sample/update' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Volume Ramp Up Rate' '1 sample/update' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Volume Ramp Down Step' '1dB/step' amixer -q -c $CARDNR set 'Volume Ramp Up Step' '1dB/step' alsactl store $CARDNR chmod 666 /var/lib/alsa/asound.state filetool.sh -b >/dev/null echo "*** Please, reboot the system now!" exit 0 -------------------- ssh as tc, "su root", copy/paste above into the shell, and then run "reboot". Let me know if it works.
