Hifi Berry Amp2 not working on new install

Hi, all, I have a new install of Volumio on a raspi0w with a Hifi Berry Amp2 , however i get no sound from it. I spent 3 hours yesterday looking around for any information for a solution i could find and finally gave up last night before posting on the Hifi Berry forms, who. responded with the obvious answer of selecting the “correct profile for the amp”.

I am hoping that someone with a similar setup who has it working can post their config, or let me know if this is just a bad board/bug in current release ect.

I do appreciate any and all help. thanks!

Go to playback options, enable I2S DAC, select Hifiberry DAC2

Restart

Let us know

did that 3 times across 3 re-flash’s of the SD card.
did not work

edit:
additional information that may be of use, the command aplay -l
returns:

We don’t have an hifiberry amp 2 here to test, so not sure we can help.
Your best bet is trying all the hifiberry settings until you find the correct one…

Let us know

this is interesting, i just moved the SD card to my Rpi3 and the Hat is working
