Failed to open "ALSA Default" (alsa); Failed to open ALSA device "_audioout": No such
#21
@Relocated2007

You may be interested to hear that in the soon-to-be released moOde 8, the Audio Config screen has been improved to
  • unify the output device selection (I2S or USB device) on one page
  • allow the selection of an I2S driver by device name (as it is now) or by actual driver overlay name
The first is a matter of convenience to the user; the second makes it easy to configure for a device not yet in moOde's device database.

As well, the kernel and its drivers have been bumped to v5.15.23-v7+

Support other OSes? Any hacker can fork moOde's code repository and have a go. It should work mutatis mutandi. That's a lovely Latin phrase which more or less means "once all the necessary changes have been made" without committing to a statement of what those changes actually are. T.B.D. when the attempt is made. Rolleyes

For example, I and at least one other user tried porting a much earlier release of moOde to a different ARM-based SBC as well as distro. In my case it was a SolidRun CuBox-i4Pro and the Armbian distro. It worked in the sense that I could play music (only to USB devices, no I2S interface is present) but it was a pain finding work-arounds to account for the differences from an RPi and the Raspbian OS of the time. Supporting the result in the long term would have been a nightmare as the different distros evolved in their own fashions. I patted myself on the back and moved on.
