HifiBerry DAC + ADC Pro no sound after reboot until volume change

Hi all,

I’m running Volumio 2.806 on a RaspBerry PI 4 with a HifiBerry DAC + ADC Pro.
Using the docs and this community I configured Volumio for this DAC and also opted for hardware volume control. Everything is running fine, except that after a reboot there is no sound. I have
to modify the volume to something ( using either the GUI, or ‘volumio volume xx’ , or ‘amixer set Digital xxx’ ) to get sound. In the System Settings, ‘Startup Sound’ is ON, and yes, at reboot I can hear the startup sound. Just nothing upon playing, either thru the GUI or ‘aplay’…

$ aplay -l
   ...
card 2: sndrpihifiberry [snd_rpi_hifiberry_dacplusadcpro], device 0: HiFiBerry DAC+ADC Pro HiFi multicodec-0 [HiFiBerry DAC+ADC Pro HiFi multicodec-0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

$ cat /etc/asound.conf
pcm.!default {
  type hw card 2
}
ctl.!default {
  type hw card 2
}

$ cat /etc/mpd.conf
 ....
audio_output {
		type		"alsa"
		name		"alsa"
		device		"hw:2,0"
		dop			"no"
}

I also tried editing ‘/etc/mpd.conf’ using

    audio_output {
    		type		"alsa"
    		name		"alsa"
    		device		"hw:2,0"
    		dop			"no"
             mixer_control 	"Digital"
    	 mixer_device 	"hw:2"
    	 mixer_index 	"0"
    }

but that doesn’t make a difference.

Changing ‘Mixer Control Name’ to ‘Analogue’ does give me sound after a reboot, but then changing volume doesn’t work anymore

Does anyone know how I can solve this ?

Thanks in advance !

Pieter.
