Re: Audio USB Sound Card and External USB not working

I found what the problem was with my build... followed 144TECH's and VeteramGamer's suggestion and it was then when I realised that I had a problem with my Raspberry Pi Zero W's second micro usb port and hence lsusb command was not detecting it. I needed to buy a second Raspberry Pi Zero W in order ...

Re: USB audio wiring - confused!

I had the same problem myself. Assuming the wiring is all correct the potentiometer wheel was my problem. Having changed it fix my problem and I was getting sound from both the speaker and the headphones.

Good luck!

Re: Audio USB Sound Card and External USB not working

Ohhh damn it! Thank you for the wiring setup.

I am not 100% sure about the pinout for the wheel either!

Is the retropie configured as BOTH to get the sound?

Re: PRS-Tech Cartboard not working

Thanks for the links. I shall try to shorten the wires as well as twisting and shielding. Currently the home made cartridge works as it is with the shielding (that's why it's covered with electric tape in the picture above).
