Hi there! Ever since I received my Devterm, I have been unable to get the speakers to work. I disassembled and reassembled the device two times hoping that would resolve it magically but alas! No luck. When I try to check the sound settings, it appears the OS doesn’t even recognize that there are speakers present.
Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this?
clean out the contacts maybe?
I did the mistake of assembling two speakers in the same orientation, when the instructions called out for one speaker to face opposite to each other (if I remember correctly). This resulted only one of them worked. I changed it accordingly so now it works fine for both!
But your case sounds new to me, so check to contacts. If it’s dirty, a small dab of alcohol will fix it.
If you’ve an A-04 model, there’s a known software bug. You’ll need to update the OS. Open a terminal and:
wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/clockworkpi/apt/main/debian/KEY.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-key del 57B7A98BBEBA8C10CA4458810DD08811478B1249
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo reboot
Your sound should be working after that.
That fixed it! Thank you so much!
