You can disable the HDMI audio in the config.text file in the boot folder. ?I am laid up and can not get to my computer to look up the specific line to add the ¡°,noaudio¡± to the end of the dev= line and do not remember the driver that the video is using.?
I hope no one thinks I'm picking on you.? I admire your many helpful posts here.? I hope you are feeling better soon.?
However, the point I am making is it should not be necessary to disable HDMI speakers, USB headsets, or the on-board headphone jack either,
if just three lines of code in the sbitx application are changed.IMO, we should be asking the question "
how can I use other audio devices" instead of "
how do we turn off other audio devices".
This is really relevant to those of us who have the board-only option and want to use the Pi in sbitx for many different things instead of it just being an embedded radio dsp/gui device.
And, for Paul, he wants to use his USB headset without having to take it out every time he reboots.
These are sensible goals, no?
I admire Paul's work.? He already has a deeper understanding of the situation than I do.
I don't really care which exact approach is taken.??
And in the case of Paul's work, maybe a better understanding of Linux's audio options will lead to everyone being able to use USB headsets and other USB-attached sound devices, perhaps Bluetooth as well.
Unfortunately for me it's bad timing for me to dig deeper into this space, all I can do is keep trying to get people to focus on what I think the goal should be.
