Good, because the profile is there, but the log shows, the ALC898 is not initialised like we do for other ALC codecs. Simple fix to test, when OK, I’ll add it to the build.
Will post instructons here the next few days
Added to the todo list, not sure about audio though. Had reports that headphone/lineout was ok.
Your initial WiFi error (missing firmware) disappeared, have not checked whether WLAN hotspot was enabled

I’m wondering, could it be that the hyphen in [HD-Audio Generic] name is erroneously recognized as a special regex or jolly char and breaks the process of audio devices identification? Just a stupid idea…
no, it is more likely that the “HDA-Audio Generic” was only configured once based on one particular configuration request.
With x86 it is not like a PI or Tinkerboard, there are soooo many different configurations we would need to take care off.
There will never be a guarantee from us, that we can take care of all of them.
Hi, I think I switched off WLAN …
With regards to the USB HD/library problem: I switched back from 3.114 to 3.111 and, so far, it seems to work again … Setting up the library (=import of the mp3’s on the FAT32 1 TB SSD) wasn’t a problem at all. Apart from that, as written earlier, I needed to restart after the initial start of Volumio to avoid stuttering of sound. In this case, with 3.111, the sound stuttered, and even when I pressed “Pause”, playing went on after a small interruption … as with earlier versions, a restart helped.
Device: ThinkPad T430 - volumio PC version
Version: 3.114
Issue: I try to install volumio pc version on 320 GB hard-drive but it is going on error, on 160 GB hard-drive no problem, all ok.
Debug log link:
are there any limits on hard-drive capability ?
thanks nico
Could you edit script /usr/local/bin/volumio_hda_intel_tweak.sh and change the line
"Realtek ALC892")
to
"Realtek ALC892"|"Realtek ALC898")
then reboot and check?
(You need sudo nano to edit)
Could you run the following script for me and post the outpout?
for card in /sys/class/sound/card*; do
cardno=$(cat $card/number)
chip=$(amixer -c $cardno info | grep "Mixer name" | awk -F": " '{print (substr($2, 2, length($2) - 2))}')
echo "Internal card name:" $(cat /proc/asound/cards | grep "$(cat $card/number) \[$(cat $card/id)" | awk -F" - " '{print $2}')
echo "Internal codec name:" $chip
done
Here it is:
volumio@volumioss:~$ ./gkkpch.sh
Internal card name: HD-Audio Generic
Internal codec name: ATI R6xx HDMI
Internal card name: HD-Audio Generic
Internal codec name: Realtek ALC1220
Thanks for your quick reply.
Perhaps also
aplay -c 0
aplay -c 1
I will probably find a working solution, both cards will then show the same subdevices, as the cards have the same card name.
The first card only has HDMI support (probably on HDMI 0), Analog and SPDIF will be shown but won’t work.
Similar story for the second one, it will have Analog out and SPDIF support, HDMI 0-3 will also be shown but won’t work.
This is not ideal, but given the fact we have not seen such a rare config for the last 6 years, a complete redesign of soundcard parsing is not justified for one single user, hope you understand.
Once I have the output of the above commands I will make a suggestion for editing and testing.
When it is OK, it will be implemented in one of the next releases.
Thanks to you for taking care of such a rare issue. It is enough to have all the options available, duplicates don’t matter.
The first command returned an error, the second one never returned until I pressed Ctrl+C. Shall I wait longer?

Could you edit (you need sudo) /volumio/app/plugins/audio_interface/Alsa_controller/cards.json
Replace line
{"name": "HDA-Audio Generic", "multidevice": true, "devices":[{"number":3, "prettyname": "HDMI", "defaultmixer": ""}]},
with
{"name": "HD-Audio Generic", "multidevice": true, "devices":[{"number":0, "prettyname": "Analog Out", "defaultmixer": ""},{"number":1, "prettyname": "SPDIF", "defaultmixer": ""},{"number":3, "prettyname": "HDMI", "defaultmixer": ""}]},
Note HDA-Generic was also changed to HD-Audio Generic (typo, the reason why you did not see the “pretty” names).
Then, also edit /usr/local/bin/volumio_hda_intel_tweak.sh to ensure the right channels are unmuted.
Replace the line (below “case $cardname in”)
"HDA Intel PCH")
with
"HDA Intel PCH"|"HDA Intel"|"HDA ATI SB"|"HD-Audio Generic")
Then replace line
"Realtek ALC892"|"Realtek ALC898")
with
"Realtek ALC892"|"Realtek ALC898"|"Realtek ALC1220")
Please reboot and test
Difficult to answer, it should not make any difference.
What I would need is a log from the failing 320GB trial.
I have seen an issue recently, not due to size, but due to failing to remove partitions (see Index at the top of this thread). A log would make that clear.
That would not stop the firmware being loaded properly and this seems to work ok.
The Z83 is a low performance mini pc, don’t expect miracles 
During indexing of the library, stutter can occur while playing music in parallel.
Also, we know that after connecting an external drive, indexing sometime needs to be started manually by the update button in the “Source” menu.
After all is finished (and a reboot), a Z83 should be OK though.
I’ll close this report unless something fails consistently, which I did not read from your text.
In case you open another one, please add a log, otherwise it is just guesswork, I’m not very good at that.
Also, one issue per report makes it a lot easier to handle.
I see the devices did not duplicate, did not expect that. So you edited my suggestion or added it unchanged?
I’ll leave your call open for a few days, in case I don’t hear anything, I’ll close and implement the changes.
I did exactly what you asked, I didn’t change anything at all

Perfect, nice to see there are no duplicates, the parsing must be a little more sophisticated than I thought
