USB DAC
Instead of using PWM audio via the Rpi GPIO pins (in case of using the Zero board) another option is using a USB DAC, available here.
To save space the USB connector can be removed so it can be directly connected to the Zero board or via a USB hub.
You may need to change the default audio device in order to make the sound play via the USB DAC. Just edit/create a file called /etc/asound.conf and insert this:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card <number of your card>
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card <number of your card>
}
You can check if it should work when you start alsamixer, it should show your usb audio device by default.
