Splash video and USB audio

I recently tried adding a splash video, the video works but there is no sound. Turnes out omxplayer, what RetroPie uses to show the splash screen, doesn't support USB audio devices... Anyone have tips for a media player I could use (and a way of implementing it) or maybe a way to work omxplayer into playing nice?

OMXPlayer does not support USB Audio,
but there is one user that tries to find a solution.

You might want to message r10r to ask him if he managed to do this.

Wow that's a huge downside. I'm glad i decided not to do USB audio now.

(I just made a thread about this... whoops
)
Looks like this guy found a solution (I think).

In the asplashscreen file, you need to change the line
omxplayer -o both -b --layer 10000 "$line"
to
omxplayer -o local -b --layer 10000 "$line"
Here is the asplashscreen file
original code:

I'm going to update my code tonight and see if I can get sound to work on my video splash screen. Just to note, I'm using kite's SAIO. I'll keep you posted.

I tried this already and it didn't work for me, hopefully it will for you. Let us know.
