Description Of Issue

Force Volume does not work IN RoPieee?

Within RoPieee I have turned on force volume.
I have set the level to 10 and saved the setting and rebooted RoPieee.
I am using a FLIRC remote control USB interface.
I have programmed an Apple remote control this works OK.
I am using a Raspberry Pi4 with a RPi 7" touchscreen.
I am using a Khadas Tone Control DAC this has been configured to Device Volume in Roon.
When I open Roon the volume on the RPi touchscreen displays whatever the volume is in Roon.
If I set the volume level to 100 and power down Roon and my Pi4 and reboot the volume in Roon and on my touchscreen is set at 100 not 10 as set within RoPieee?
Am I missing something?

‘Force Volume’ works only with USB DAC’s, not with HAT’s.

Hello Harry

The DAC I’m using is not a HAT this is a stand alone DAC it is not connected via the 40 pin header connectors it connects directly to the USB port of the Pi this provides power and data details here;

Tone 1 | Khadas
