I’ve been using this wonderful piece of software for a while. I have two ropieees up and running. One with USB connection to a DAC. One with a Hifiberry HAT with analog output and they both run smooth.
My issue right now is to bring my third one up and running. RPI3 + Display + HiFiBerry Digi+ PRO.
It all looks ok from the web interface however the unit does not show up on the “audio-console” on Roon.
dmesg says the following:
[ 5.167202] snd-hifiberry-digi soc:sound: ASoC: CPU DAI (null) not registered - will retry
[ 5.170418] snd-hifiberry-digi soc:sound: ASoC: CODEC DAI wm8804-spdif not registered - will retry
[ 5.326062] wm8804 1-003b: Failed to read device ID: -5
[ 5.330548] wm8804: probe of 1-003b failed with error -5
Is the card broken? I’ve tried both Digi+ and Digi+ PRO but with same results.
I had the same issue solved in this way: you have to start first the Roon core. After that you can power on the raspberry pi. After the boot procedure the raspberry network audio player appears as an audio zone (if the raspy is configured correctly eg. proper HAT, proper ip address).
If you activate the raspberry before Roon application it cannot detect it.
Yeah well the logging above doesn’t look good. Is that message still present after unmount and mounting the HAT again? Because if so then I’m afraid it ends there.
Oh ok. I didn’t understood your remark about usb anyhow. Can you send me feedback? Go to the webpage of your RoPieee, then to the ‘advanced’ tab and hit the ‘send feedback’. I can then have a look in the logs. Please do so with the USB DAC connected.
OK… I found a problem. You didn’t had an ethernet connection while installing RoPieee. That is required because the Roon software is being pulled from the internet during installation.
As you already know how to run a dmesg I suggest you log in and run the following command:
/opt/RoPieee/lib/install_roonbridge
After this reboot and try again. USB connected DAC should show up in Roon.
too late
i didn’t have any more uSD cards so needed to flush the old one.
New RPi with old HAT works
no more errors in dmesg and the player shows up in Roon
ok, i will report back when I have the possibility.
To bother you oncemore the RP is up and running, but the display tab is not shown in the web configuration page. The display is working ok, but just as a std display.
Where to look this time?
