No sound / MPD error (moode 8.2.0 / Allo BOSS / RPI 3 B+)

Hello everybody!
Can someone please help?

On a fresh install, I keep getting this error when trying to play music.

Code:

MPD error: Failed to open "ALSA Default" (alsa); Failed to open ALSA device "_audioout": No such file or directory

moode 8.2.0 / Allo BOSS / RPI 3 B+

What do I need to do?

Please tell me what kind of info you need to identify the problem.
I'm most grateful for your time.
Thanks!

Very odd. I have a 3B+ with a Boss on top and no issues.

Post the output from the following commands and I'll have a look.

Code:

moodeutl -l

lsmod | grep allo_boss

don't bother please

Hey Tim,
did another clean install and now it works. Sorry, my bad.

I feel stupid. Admin, can you please delete this thread?

It's actually a useful thread because the specific error you reported (below) occurred on one of my I2S test systems the other day and after investigating I found that the file /boot/config.txt which contains the line that specifies the I2S device driver was gone :-0

Code:

MPD error: Failed to open "ALSA Default" (alsa); Failed to open ALSA device "_audioout": No such file or directory

The key element of the error is this line

Code:

No such file or directory

My test systems are thrashed and reloaded frequently and so I'll chalk it up to some weird combination of events but if the error comes up again in the Forum I'll have the "missing config.txt" file on the list of possible causes to investigate.
