"No config file, using defaults" when there's a config file in the directory? #299

I'm testing this on my Mac to ensure it works before I eventually move it to my Pi, but one thing I wasn't happy with was the volume on the Google devices is v quiet - also would like to rename the devices - so generated a config file using -i and edited it.

Ran the exec again and the first message I see is "no config file, using defaults" - I've tried renaming the .yml ext to .yaml just in case it couldn't see the file (even though it generated it like that!) - still no luck. When I run -i again, it overwrites the config file with default settings.

it's a .xml file by default and you have to use -x to use it. The -i is just to create it, per documentation

Got it, thank you - Ctrl + F on the documentation for "-x" and the only instance of it being mentioned is in the auto Linux install section - so might be useful to mention it at the top of Config File Parameters section or even inside the Common Info - but thanks for letting me know!
