An initial fix is up on the github issue (see message above).
The fix is to load the snd_soc_cs42xx8_i2c module at boot time. For example add this to your /etc/modules file.
This makes your modules file look like the following :
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /etc/modules
i2c-dev
snd_soc_cs42xx8_i2cI will update the device tree soon to make sure it autoloads in future releases.
I'll address the 4.19 failure in this github issue :
Octo not working anymore with RPi kernel 4.19 · Issue #14 · Audio-Injector/Octo · GitHub
Hi can you please verify that a soft restart (without a power cycle) brings the card up ?
I have reverted the device-tree to dummy supplies which brings the card up reliably.
Hi all,
I am remote during the holiday period and don't have an octo with me. It seems that all the necessary drivers are present in raspbian :
snd-soc-audioinjector-octo-soundcard.ko
snd-soc-cs42xx8*
audioinjector-addons.dtbo
This is the first I have heard of problems with the card and libreelec.
I will validate its operation when I return later this month using the latest raspbian.
