Assuming the Khadas Tone Board is what you mean by "Tone Board", this device works fine for me with moOde 6.4.0 on an RPi4B.
Candidly, I'm confused by your problem description, especially with your ambiguous mention of HDMI (is it for display or for audio?).
Maybe we should start with a simple configuration. Fresh moOde installation. KTB plugged into a USB socket. NO HDMI connection. With a browser on a phone, tablet, or computer, and using the moOde UI, make sure that, on the Audio config page, the I2S device set to "None" and, on the MPD config page under Audio device, the Device type is set to "USB Audio device". Save the MPD configuration.
At this point, assuming the Tone Board is connected to an amplifier and headphones or speakers, you should be able to play Internet radio stations, tracks stored locally or on a connected NAS. If various alternative renderers are enabled, your should also be able to play music streamed into moOde via, say, Bluetooth, Airplay, Spotify. Squeezelite, or UPnP.
When that's working, we can talk about Tidal and which method you are using to play Tidal selections. Method 1 is to use a Tidal app on some other device to select tracks and stream the output from that device to moOde via one of the alternative renderers. Method 2 is to setup your Tidal account on the UPnP configuration page and then use a UPnP control point on some other device to select and stream Tidal tracks directly.
