LibreElec9 : Audio Output always wrong after start

Johannes · November 15, 2018 at 11:07 AM

Hi,

I am using LE 8.90.007 on a new J4105-itx. Whenever I start LE the audio output is set to HDMI #2 and I have to change it manually to #0, where the options show HDMI #0 connected to my Marantz AVR.

I have read a lot about the edid thing but I don't think it is the reason here. The problem occurs always ! Regardless if AVR and TV are on or off. I have also switched to "fixed" on Output Configuration, doesn't help.

What makes LE forget my selection?

_{Let me guess: the addon set what you have configured ....}

Hmm,

that means : I have to deactivate/deinstall the Bluetooth output ?

I will try..

I checked and there is no Bluetooth present or configure from the user side.

The real problem I see ist still the question : Why does LE forget my setting and witching to another audio output, to some HDMI, that is not present, while at HDMI #0 the correct AVR "Marantz" is detected and shows the screen correctly ...?

Anybody can help me?

Thanks,

You do have installed the addon service.bluetooth-audio from the LibreELEC repo. A "Bluetooth Audio Device Changer" that "Provides the ability to change the kodi audio device if a bluetooth audio device is connected".

On kodi startup the addon selects the default audio device configured in the addon settings (with or without bluetooth).

Fix the addon setting or uninstall/disable the addon if you don't use it.

Yeaaaa !

Thanks to you @mglea, you were absolutely right and the problems was between my ears

This was caused from using the (wonderful) backup and restore feature of Libreelec, that helped restoring the LE on the new board within minutes, but brought back few things that are not needed here !

Thanks,
