Peachtree Nova150 + Rasberry Pi 4b: No sound out of USB ports

Help and Support
1

Hi everyone,

Has anyone been able to get the Nova150 ( 9018 ESS Sabre chip) working with Volumio (latest version) on Pi4b?

I tried all 4 USB ports and both USB inputs on Nova150 but still no sound.

BTW How do you know what USB port the sound will come out of?

Thanks

After you connect the DAC to one USB port (which one does not matter), to to playback option and select the USB output, then click save

Ciao…

Thanks, I got the Nova150 USB B working after I got a new USB cable and the output showed up on the “Output Device” dropdown.

Sound is not what it should be though, sounds pretty flat even with FLAC files.

Any parameters I should look at in Volumio?

Thanks
Erick
