Hi!
I have hopes of getting a project going based on Volumio and DSP/crossover (I’ve read that people did have success with both BruteFir and Folve in this forum). I have currently Volumio running on a Beaglebone Black. I also have a XMOS based multichannel USB sound card - USBStreamer from miniDSP http://www.minidsp.com/products/usb-audio-interface/usbstreamer which have 8ch I2S outputs that connects to my ES9018 based dac.
So, in short, the setup would be Volumio as source/Airport receiver -> BruteFir/Folve for drc and crossover -> multichannel USB-I2S converter -> multichannel DAC.
Unfortunately I have no linux experience (yet) so I’m hoping for some help/advice on this. As a first step I need to get the USBStreamer to work with Volumio. I’ve connected the USBStreamer to BBB, but for some reason it’s not showing up as an Audio Output in Volumio. No sign of it when using aplay:
root@volumio:~# aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Black [TI BeagleBone Black], device 0: HDMI nxp-hdmi-hifi-0 []
Subdevices: 1/1

null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
default:CARD=Black
TI BeagleBone Black,

sysdefault:CARD=Black

So…any suggestions on how to get this working?
Best regards,
Mattias
