Problem with 3.5mm jack output

[chongkim97]

I had installed everything without error but whenever I would try and play something it would come out as static, would anyone have any idea as to why it happens or how I could solve it I'm on a fresh install of Raspbian on a Pi3B and have done the necessary updates to the OS

Are you using an HDMI output? The RPi could be outputting the sound there.. Try forcing the audio output to the jack. $ amixer cset numid=3 1 or $ sudo raspi-config then select Advanced Options -> Audio -> 1 Force 3.5 mm, then Press Enter Use the right arrow to select Finish, then Enter.

Yeah, I've forced the output towards to the jack

Try a different p2 connector, worked for me. From loud static noise to clean output.

My problem seems to be simillar. I used to use raspotify for few months. One day it just stopped working. I mean raspotify was on but music wasn't playing. Quick removal and install again. Music plays again except I can hear statics. Weird thing is that when I turn (on my mobile spotify client) volume down to 0% I can still hear music (very quietly) playing in raspotify. I checked if maybe 2 raspotify clients are up on my raspberry but that is not true. Still didn't find any cause of the problem

Try adding hdmi_ignore_edid_audio=1 to your /boot/config.txt.

I am on Debian Stretch, with raspotify and Kodi. With this configuration, Spotify plays on the analog output and Kodi plays on HDMI. I did not modify /etc/default/raspotif.

Any updates on this issue? I had same problems as @chongkim97, Pi(v1)B, static highly correlated to wifi activity. I only managed to solve it by using an external (usb) sound card.

I was able to make raspotify play via jack by changing raspotify config file. I have a Raspberry Pi 2 running Debian 10 with HDMI cable disconnected at all times. No window env. I couldn't change default output from HDMI to Analog (Headphones). Even addinghdmi_ignore_edid_audio=1 in config.txt made no effect.

Forced analog output by adding below line to /etc/default/raspotify OPTIONS="--device hw:1,0"

@chm-dev thanks. It works now :)

@chm-dev Works just fine, thanks!

Based on this: https://github.com/dtcooper/raspotify/pull/386 I've added to /etc/default/raspotify:

OPTIONS="--device hw:CARD=Headphones,0"
