Analog audio output not working (quite often)

  • Hi !

    I use Librelec 8.2.5 on a Intel NUC6I3SYH box.

    I have also a NAD amplifier which is bound to my box through an analog cable.

    So my audio output setting is set to ALSA: HDA Intel PCH, ALC283 Analog.
    Note that there is another entry in the menu, ALSA: Default (HDA Intel PCH AL283 Analog), it seems that it is the same one (they both output sound on my NAD).

    Here's my problem : quite often, when I start LibreELEC, I have no sound.

    It's like the audio output was ignored (but it is displayed in the dropdown).

    If I switch it to ALSA: HDA Intel PCH, SAM SAMSUNG on HDMI #0 (my TV device); I got sound on my TV.

    But if I switch it back to the analog... Sometimes it brings the sound back, other times (most often) it keeps silent.

    The best thing I've found is: to put the box in sleep mode then wake it up.

    When it wakes up, there is a little cracking sound out of my loudspeakers, and then most of the times, the sound is back on KODI + NAD.

    It also sometimes work when I restart my box, even if it seems that it works better (and is faster) with the sleep/wake up thing.

    I never had this problem before; and I have the feeling that I almost always have it now (especially since I updated to LibreELEC 8.2.4 ?).

    Well, does anyone knows what it could be ?

    Thanks.

  • I have this exact same issue... found this thread through Google. I have an Intel NUC 2820. No audio on startup unless wakeup from sleep.


    Is there an update / fix?

  • Good idea :)

    Can you read this ?

    This is a log when the audio does not initialize.
