RPI2: SoundCard not detected

[ebnerjoh]

Hi!

I want to install the PiCorePlayer on my RPI2. I downloaded piCore-6.1alpha4_v7-SSH.zip and installed it on the SD. System is booting up and working but when I install the ALSA-Tools via TCE then I get the error message "no soundcard found".
Same error appers when I run alsamixer.

Any Ideas?

Hi johannes

If you only want to use piCorePlayer then you simply needs to download the image and burn it to your SD-card.
Then boot and you have a working squeezebox player.

You can get it from here: https://sites.google.com/site/picoreplayer/home/download

What happenes if you modprobe snd-bcm2835 ?

[ebnerjoh]

Yes, when running this command then the soundcard is detected.

Can I automatically load the module?

Add command to /opt/bootlocal.sh

Don't forget to backup.

Thanks, working. Also after reboot.
