        The soud device selection in ES does more than just editing the recalbox.conf. It also sets some parameters for ALSA.

              To everyone : just a few words regarding what you'd believe to be strange but may not be:

              • the splash video is played through omxplayer which doesn't care about soundcards. Just jack and hdmi
              • changing a sound device in ES woumd not change where the music is output until a reboot, wheras emulators would work straight away after. That is a lumitation of alsa not being able of dynamically changing the output device of an already running process
              • we know about that bug in ES where music would start after player input

              @monsieurlefou as your dac works, can you make a support archive ? http://recalbox/help

                I dont understand what he made, as he didnt modified recalbox.conf, but has other values inside as we have ?

                i don't modify recalbox.conf.
                I just hack settings audio via the recalbox audio menu settings.

                  I was just testing with 4.1 stable now and the communicated value of audio.device=
                  Nothing changed, always no sound. The same in Kodi, no found device.
                  So I have some doubt...

                  Perhaps possibility to provide momentary download of march 4.1us, so that the few concerned
                  could use their machine before they have convulsions 😉 I have just PI3 version. benj008 has PI2.

                    @dragu we don't have such old builds. What i should do is check all sound commits between march and april and see what i can do. No time for that, i'm on holidays, won't be very active for a week

                      I wish you first nice (and merited) holidays. I hope not in silicon valley 😉
                      So if benj008 spend the money for a PI3 (that anywhere he will not regret) and if he contacts me, I can help him.

                        @dragu hi in this case do you think a pi3 will be a good idea?
                        To tell the truth i thought about it at the very begining;-)
                        Anyway i m ok with this if you think it can help bringing the sound back. I precise i m far for professional in such areas sorry. But happily accept you help.

                          If you send me a mail on "amarx"@"tango.lu", I will send you back a link short time after where you can download the 4.1 march version, just not to be without gaming.

                              You know that the images are processor dependant, so I have just the PI3 version. Anyway it is double speed from PI2.

                                Do i have to reinstall hifiberry soundcard before that also?

                                  You must copy the march image and make the few modifications in config.txt and make asound.conf. You sure already did it once.

                                      Hi Benjamin,
                                      On peut aussi parler francais et je vais t'aider.
                                      Il faut avoir un clavier raccordé en USB sur ton raspberry.
                                      Si tu veux récupèrer tes roms et ta configuration des joysticks, il faudra après recopier tout le directory /share (/recalbox/share) sur ta nouvelle installation.
                                      Mais commencant par le début.

                                      Si tu te trouves dans l'écran émulation, tu pousse t'abord F4 et après ALT+F2.
                                      Il te demande le login.
                                      nom : root
                                      passcode : recalboxroot
                                      Si tout est correct, il t'affiche #.
                                      Maintenant une première commande linux est importante
                                      ls ---> t'affiche les directory actuel, comme ça tu vois ou tu te trouve.
                                      Maintenant tu fais
                                      cd / avec un espace entre
                                      ls devrait maintenant t'afficher les directory avec /boot et /etc on aura besoin des deux. tu fais
                                      cd boot et après
                                      ls ---> maintenant du verra config.txt qui se trouve dans boot. Tu dois te mettre en droit de modifier cet fichier par
                                      mount -o remount, rw /boot un espace après la virgule et -o(ctave), pas zéro
                                      pour les modifications tu appelle
                                      nano config.txt
                                      et il va normalement ouvrir le fichier
                                      Tu navigue avec le curseur et tu met un # devant cette ligne
                                      comment out

                                      #dtparam=audio=on
                                      

                                      et après tu ajoute les lignes, tu peut les mettre directement derrière

                                      # uncomment for hifiberry
                                      dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus
                                      

                                      Voilà les modifications dans config.txt, il faut encore les sauvegarder. Tu fais
                                      CTRL+X et Y pour dire yes, sinon tu recommence. Pour contrôler que config.txt est bien modifié, la commande
                                      cat ---> va t'afficher le contenu 🙂 On quitte boot et on revient à la base, pour cela tu fais
                                      cd .. (avec un espace) Maintenant si tu fais à nouveau
                                      ls il va t'afficher entre autre le directory etc

                                        Nous allons dans cet directory par la commande
                                        cd etc
                                        Maintenant pour avoir les droits d'écriture
                                        mount -o remount, rw /
                                        donc comme avant sans boot derrière, ok, il faut créer le fichier asound.conf ici
                                        nano asound.conf
                                        il est vide, il faut tout créer

                                        
                                        pcm.!default {
                                        type hw card 0
                                        }
                                        ctl.!default {
                                        type hw card 0
                                        }
                                        

                                        CTRL+X Yes et après tu peux à nouveau contrôler si le contenu est juste avec
                                        cat asound.conf

                                        Gagné. On restarte la machine avec la commande
                                        reboot

                                        The beat goes on !

                                            @dragu une dernière chose après je te lache...
                                            bon maintenant j'ai un pb de mapping de mes controles
                                            j'ai deux jeux de sticks arcade + 6 boutons reliés à une carte en usb avec le rpi sur un meme plan en bois
                                            configurer celui de gauche est facile (1 player) mais qd je veux configurer l'autre (2p), il prend la place du 1p mais ne s'ajoute pas impossible d'avoir les 2 qui marchent en meme temps donc, comme c'etait le cas avant...

                                            si t'as une idée, je prends!

                                            Merci encore
