Cannnot Load HiFiBerry DAC Plus Pro XLR Module

[foxint]

Hi Guys

Hope you all had a good Christmas.

I have some time and trying to get the NEW HiFiBerry DAC Plus Pro XLR. Month down the track and it is still not working. I have tried to load the RuneOS kernel settings I2S kernel.

I have used the drop-down box and clicked on HiFiBerry DAC Plus Pro XLR. I have pushed Apply, I have re-booted, I have clicked the module and re-booted. Nothing will seem to make the HiFiBerry DAC Plus Pro XLR Stick. It defaults to PIFi DAC Plus.

Yes there is no sound.

Can any one help?

Thanks mate.

Still not working for me.

Perhaps I had better wait for the upgrade. When will that be? I have gotten better at expanding and flashing the programme to the small disc. But it is a real pain in the bottom...Sorry, but I keep having to find the old laptop that has the flashing thing.

Happy to wait....any ideas when:

foxint,

I just picked up a Hifiberry DAC Plus Pro RCA and it worked fine. There may be a fundamental difference in the "XLR" model. But, on the off chance you may have missed something along the way, here are the steps I followed:
1. Install unit
2. Power up and go to “Settings” - change device to Hifiberry DAC + (the indicated resulting setting may be different)
3. Reboot
4. Goto ‘MPD”
5. Change output to Hifiberry DAC
6. Set Volume to “enabled - hardware”
7. Set Start Volume to “100”
Watch out that the volume can be easily changed by the user interface now. On my other systems I have outboard DACs and I have these set to volume disabled ( I use standard stereo amps). I found that on the Hifiberry, I accidentally lowered the volume and could not hear the unit.

You can also troubleshoot your DAC by prepping an up to date Rasbian image and following Hifiberry instructions on enabling this DAC. This would let you know if the issue is Runeaudio setup or your DAC.
Good luck

Hi foxint,
Please go to your debug UI and copy the lines from:
'###### System info ######'
to
'###### Kernel optimization parameters ######'.

Post these lines in your reply. Before Submitting your reply, select all the text from the debug and click the blue button called Code. Try Preview to see what it looks like.

Sorry..... "Update RuneUI - gitpull" did not do anything. All I got was a red circle with a red line through it. I did click Save Setting....still nothing.

Is there an instruction missing

??

OK...moving ahead and now back.

I have the following error:

WARNING - The loading layer (spinning arrows_ pints to a socket error"

?:??
