Actually "hdmi:CARD=AMLAUGESOUND,DEV=0" does work. In Settings-System-Audio it shows differently, but it does work. I goofed and had "ALSA:" in front of the text above on my first try.

Thanks Adam, you are the man!

Thanks Adam.

Is the text you entered in the "settings" the exact same as aplay -l/-L returned? My Pi4 running LibreElec 9.2.1 doesn't like aplay -l or -L:

##############################################

LibreELEC (official): 9.2.1 (RPi4.arm)
RPi4Test:~ # aplay -l
aplay: device_list:272: no soundcards found...

RPi4Test:~ # aplay -L
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)

RPi4Test:~ #

But my ODroid N2 CoreElec v9.2.2 returns different stuff for each command:

YellowBR:~ # aplay -l

I tried "hdmi:CARD=AMLAUGESOUND,DEV=0", no dice.

Hey!!

I really hope someone out there reads this I fixed it!!!

OK I am not taking the blame for this one. I'm not placing blame either LOL but, it wasn't me....

Turns out the issue was caused by an add-on of yours called "Bluetooth Audio Device Changer" which I have installed and works perfectly. It has only one setting which is what sets the audio device back to default after switching off the bluetooth device you were using. This setting also applies that audio setting at boot....

So, now that I have changed that setting to the USB Audio Device, not the HDMI Audio Device, everything works exactly as I wanted it to.

Also, the settings to put into the "Bluetooth Audio Device Changer" add-ons were not easy to find. And it is one of your add-ons. So, something you guys may want to look into. Or I'll post it as a glitch somewhere for you if you'll tell me how and where?

Thank you all so much for doing what you do!!

I have the exact same problem. Mine is defaulting to the analog output and I'm using HDMI. Can you share any details on how to enter the setting for the "Bluetooth Audio Device Changer"? I have tried a few things, nothing works. I would guess you'd want the text exactly as it's shown in System/Audio selection.

Thanks,

That was it, thanks! Works fine with an 8GB SD. I had been using the 8GB but that didn't work either previously, I thought my old RPi might not be able to read an SD of that capacity so I switched to the 1GB which had been working with XBMC. But that was before I discovered the power cable I was using was a problem.

I just used the SD Creator tool to re-image the lastest Kodi (v17.6) an old 1GB SD card for my older RPi (B?) which had been running a fairly old version of Rasbian XBMC.

It boots up to the Kodi Splash screen, hangs for several seconds, then the screen goes black for a while, then the Kodi Splash screen is back, and this repeats until I remove power.

Crash log attached.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

-Brad
