Working with new Raspberry PI model 3 and Volumio for the first time.
Details of new install
Fresh hardware and Volumio install (v3.512)
Internet works, Volumio app update complete
Sound works via headphone jack and OS command line & Volumio startup sound.
Added plugin (FusionDSP) to allow the app to come up on an attach TV to the PI - this works.
Volumio does dispaly all the internet sites serving music
SSH and remote connections work from a Mac
Using hardwired network connection
My problem might be related to the Alsamixer settings, its pointing to the HDMI port.
I make the change and it reverts back to the original HDMI setting.
Can someone confirm this module is used with Volumio for sound support?
Reading tips on how to make the change in Alsamixer, keep it open and in another terminal session save the file.
I have now added the HifiBerry DAC PRO and still having the same issues. I still get sound via a command line entry and the start up sound works via the new setup - just no sound in Volumio

Update - I have noticed the screen shows the song being played - but no sound. I’m reading up on how the volume gets changed. The powered speakers are connected to the Hifiberry DAC – This same setup does play the Volumio startup sound. -AlsaMixer shows: Card: HDMI — when I change and view again… still shows HDMI
please do a factory reset and try again, without manual changes on the alsamixer configuration, then please provide a system log, if you still have problems.
At new log in - enable logging This is what is on my laptop SSH. – 50.101 is the correct IP and shows on boot screen

Made the change and now getting new error when trying to play a song - no startup sound. I did have the network cable disconnected for a little after that last error about using SSH. Log sent
Your DAC requires the dt-overlay hifiberry-dacplus to be loaded.
Unfortunately there is no entry for your DAC in the list, but there are other two that will select the required dt-overlay, with slightly different parameters regarding the eeprom name
HiFiBerry DAC Plus
HiFiBerry DAC+ Pro
could you please try with both?
please don’t forget to reboot after changing the entry in the list and saving
