Hey guys. I have been at this for 2 days now..

Finally got my CS put together. Flashed Kites CS image. Set up Retropie. Transferred roms. etc.

I am not getting sound in games though. I am getting sound in menu and on splash screen, but no sound when I load a rom. So im positive the speaker works, almost certain this is a settings or config issue. I have tried literally everything I've come across online with no luck..

Config.txt :

Code: Select all

# Some settings from the orignal config.txt

Alsa-base.config (/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf) :

Code: Select all

# Set both USB and HDMI to the same index so
#   that when HDMI is enabled, it takes over

options snd-usb-audio index=0
options snd_bcm2835 index=0

Only other change I've made to config is I changed the omx player to -o alsa in splashscreen.sh to get sound on my splash screen. Ive tried changing every possible option in Sound Settings, Raspi-Config settings, Retropie Set-up Settings, Audio settings, and Retroarch Audio Settings...Im at a loss.

*Im also getting a "1v10: AudioManager Error - Unable to open SDL audio: ALSA: Couldn't open audio device: Device or resource busy" in between menu loads.

What exactly did you change? The config.txt looks adjusted to what it usually is.. I would first flash the image on github and make no changes and confirm sound works because it's all set up to work out of the box! If still no sound then please put it in tester mode and check the 'USB SOUND' passes the little test thing (saying [OK])
