RoPieee Volume control keeps going to 0

Volume issue with HAT

Yes, unfortunately this is an issue with that DAC in combination with the latest stable Linux kernel. As long as Hifiberry does not fix this there’s nothing I can do. I’m monitoring this, but so far no progress whatsoever. Thanks

Hi Fi Berry Dac2HD kernel fix

This patch is already applied, but unfortunately that’s not the only problem… The mixer issue is something that Hifiberry needs to fix and I’m afraid this will happen only when Hifiberry upgrades the kernel for their OS (RoPieee uses a newer one). I’m monitoring this closely, but so far nothing on their end.
