Apollo Lake - No sound on jack connector #772

Open Aile83 opened 1 year ago

Aile83 commented 1 year ago

Hi everybody, I've been using Thinstation for several years to connect Nano PCs to a Windows Terminal Server in an elementary school. Bravo and many thanks to the designers.

I recently purchased several nano PCs based on Apollo Lake (Celeron N3350). Everything works fine, except for the analog audio jack connector. Strangely, Windows does not detect any error and correctly displays the sound meter, while nothing comes out of the speakers. If I connect a screen via HDMI, the sound works without any problem. Only the jack connector does not work.

Can you help me ?

It's probably going to be an also thing. I would guess this is not a TS exclusive issue, and you might find some info available on the net. What audio chipset is detected? Sometimes there are two, and you can pick.

Also, a lot of monitors with HDMI have headphone jacks.

Sorry, but what do you mean exactly with "It's probably going to be an also thing" and "/also/alsa/". I do not understand, and i'm not in front of the PC now...

About HDMI, the monitors in the classrooms don't have HDMI connectors, but only VGA and a jack input. That's why i want to use the jack output on the computer.

Doncuppjr commented 1 year ago

Try running pavucontrol and see if the output even shows up.

Hi Doncuppjr,

Pavucontrol only shows "Dummy output", but with an HDMI to VGA converter with an audio connector, the sound works. I really would like to use the internal jack connector.

Here is my module.list module ac97_bus module soundcore module snd module snd-hda-intel module snd-hda-codec module snd-hda-codec-hdmi module snd-soc-core module snd-compress module snd-pcm-dmaengine module snd-soc-acpi-intel-match module snd-soc-acpi module snd-soc-sst-ipc module snd-soc-sst-dsp module snd-intel-dspcfg module snd-hwdep module snd-hda-core module snd-pcm module snd-timer module i915 module x86_pkg_temp_thermal module intel_powerclamp module coretemp module crct10dif-pclmul module i2c-algo-bit module crc32-pclmul module intel-gtt module ttm module crc32c-intel module i2c-i801 module ghash-clmulni-intel module i2c-smbus module lpc_ich module drm_kms_helper module ahci module libahci module cec module libata module joydev module mei-me module drm module igc module scsi_mod module mei module thermal I removed snd_soc_skl according to [https://bkhome.org/news/201912/sound-fix-for-54-kernel-on-apollo-lake.html], without success...

I would update the alsa ports, then the packages, and rev the kernel to the latest LTS.

Do I need to make this change myself in DevStation, or do you plan to make an update?

Doncuppjr commented 1 year ago

The ThinStation project is no longer sponsored. I might make a private paid repo for the next version, depending on interest.

Ok. One last question: is it possible to install aplay on Thinstation?

Thinstation commented 1 year ago

By default aplay is dropped. You can edit /build/packages/alsa/build/install and then run update alsa
