Error Failed to open "alsa" (alsa). Failed to open alsa device "volumio" no such device

Hey @net4u,

As you can see, you replied to @ianjturner’s post from 2022 about a HiFiBerry Digi+ Pro issue. You then mentioned you do not use HiFiBerry, so it is unclear what connection you are making to that specific post.

Could you clarify two things:

  1. What do you mean by “Volumio still send the bills. Monthly.” - are you referring to a MyVolumio subscription? What is the technical connection between billing and the ALSA error you are reporting?

  2. What is your actual setup and problem? Specifically:

    • What device is Volumio running on? (Raspberry Pi model/revision, x86, etc.)
    • What audio output are you using? (USB DAC, I2S HAT, HDMI - make and model)
    • Exact Volumio version number from Settings/System
    • What happens, when does it happen, and can you reproduce it reliably?
    • A log link from http://volumio.local/dev - grab this after reproducing the error but BEFORE rebooting, as logs are lost on power cycle

If you are on a Raspberry Pi, identify your board revision using this guide:

This thread spans four years and dozens of different hardware combinations. Without knowing your specific setup, there is no basis to investigate.

Kind Regards,
