[opensuse-arm] Any progress getting sound in Raspberry Pi 4 images?
Is there any progress in getting working sound in Raspberry Pi 4 images; XFCE or KDE? Tumbleweed and/or Leap 15.2? -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org

Long story short, it's being worked on upstream. HDMI sound through vc4 has already seen some patches[1], but it's still work in progress. I'm working on enabling sound through the Jack connector, but I don't have anything ready yet, nor can estimate when it'll be ready. Regards, Nicolas [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/27/972

Thanks Nicolas. The friend I am assisting uses the Jack connector, so now this system is using Raspbian to have sound. I stick to openSUSE and HDMI, so I am waiting. Will it only be available for Tumbleweed? -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
Any progress on this issue? Is there an alternative? USB sound device that works? -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf

Is there an USB sound device that does *not* work? All the simple "usb headset adapters" that I encountered the last 5 years just work, as usb-audio seems to be some kind of standard. So I'd go for a cheap one actually, chances that an expensive, professional device has issues are probably higher. One example, working fine with a raspi-zero-W: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0d8c:013c C-Media Electronics, Inc.

Hi Freek, HDMI sound should work on Tumblweed as long as you add the relevant DT overlay in config.txt, and configure your system properly. There were some fixes missing that broke ALSA's config, but they are all available now. So: - In config.txt: 'dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi4' - Make sure to install pulseaudio (if you actually need that, alsa should work OOTB) and login as a non root user. PA doesn't seem to like root sessions. Regards, Nicolas

I'm currently testing Leap 15.3 on a Raspi4, and I can get sound from youtube videos to play via HDMI output. Hoooooooray! However, overlay as descried by Nicolas needs to be added manually, and codecs need to be installed from packman. HTH Axel

This is definitely worth a release notes entry.

Note that this will not be necessary soon. I just updated config.txt's package (raspberrypi-firmware) to enable the display controller unanimously. Regards, Nicolas

I tested with the newest Tumbleweed XFCE and KDE and did get sound on XFCE, but NOT on KDE. Anyone succeeded on KDE? Setting nomodeset on KDE to get a login screen is still needed. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf
