i’d like to build an audio network player with Raspberry PI / Sabre I2S DAC / Volumio.
Problem : i even can’t activate the generic I2S driver, the web interface says “Job Failed
background worker is busy”.
No audio output available in the player section.
Funny : even when i try to desactivate I2S driver, the background worker is still busy…
Could anyone help the newbie I am?
Raspi B+ HifBerry Digi Dac I have the same message when trying to apply any settings on that page i have researched briefly and found others are having the same issue but i can find no solution as yet
Hi guys and thanks “sublimusic” for the link you provided i followed that and the info from Plasma25 and my B+ and Hifiberry dac digi is working and currently playing radio paradise as i type this it still says background worker is busy when i click on the tab for the selection of the Dac but it’s working and sounding fine
Create or, if exist, edit: /etc/asound.conf with the following content
pcm.!default {
type hw card 0
}
ctl.!default {
type hw card 0
}
After reboot system you can choose the Audio Output (sndrpihifiberry) at the playback panel on the web interface.
Apply the settings and mpd will restart.
I’ve recently bought a raspberry pi and am running volumio, it runs great. I’ve added the hifiberry dac but i’m getting the background worker is busy message. So I have to add the above lines to the /etc/modules. Excuse my ignorance but i am a complete noob on programming. How exactly do I edit this file? I’ve got a puTTy screen open that I’ve logged into as root then volumio as the password.
This is the prompt I have:
root@volumio:~#
I’ve tried entering the text shown for the hifiberry dac but all I get is “command not found” messages.
Got it working by upgrading to the 1.5 software. No more background worker is busy. Now enjoying fantastic HQ gapless playback!
Fantastic product Volumio, thanks very much
