Hi All,
     Our mediacentre setup is composed of Raspberry PI3, Piano DAC 2.1 and two Volt amp+ amplifiers. We need to have a fully functional 2.1 channel audio station. We have tried two different os’s namely the volumio OS and OSMC.
     Firstly for the volumio OS we have followed all the necessary steps and finally got the setup  working. But the audio from subLEFT/subRIGHT channels were barely audible(low gain). Even after trying different cut off values the audio remained the same. After that we have installed OSMC os. This time the audio from subLEFT/subRIGHT were the same as LEFT/RIGHT channels. We have used different configurations and cutoff values to no avail.
    We tried the firmware bin files provided in the github page (https://github.com/allocom/piano-firmware). It didn’t work.  We saw some users creating firmware files for different dsp configurations based on a manual (https://www.allo.com/documents/sparky/Piano-DAC-Purepath-Process-Flow.pdf). Is it a necessity to manually use the bin files? Can you please tell the proper way make the setup(2.1) work with OSMC os?

Thanks and Regards.

Hello,
     We have set-up a media center using Raspberry-pi2 and interfaced with allo-pianoDAC+volt-amp sound cards. The audio worked properly with volumo OS. But the setup didn't work with KODI no matter the changes we made with the configurations(Both with the boot/config.txt file and MY OSMC settings). Below are the steps taken:

1) Installed OSMC via noobsv1.9 installer(the OSMC setup files were automatically downloaded from internet at the time of installation).
2)After reboot, selected MY OSMC->Pi-Config->Hardware-Support->Soundcard-Overlay->allo-piano-dac...
3)After reboot, selected System->System Settings->Audio->Audio Output device->ALSA:Default(pianoDAC Analog)
4)Checked the /boot/config.txt file for dtoverlay and dtparam

Attached are the screenshots.
We expect your valuable comments and suggestions regarding the issue.

Best Regards.
