Today I just got the NanoPi-NEO2 it's nice. Put a 128GB SD card in it. Looks like no sound on it. I solder wires to it's round and left and right.

Here is what it looks like:

pi@NanoPi-NEO2:~$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:268: no soundcards found...
pi@NanoPi-NEO2:~$

Why does it say no soundcards found?

Any way to fix this?

Looks like I have to be root to use the aplay command.

Code: Select all

pi@NanoPi-NEO2:~$ sudo aplay -l
[sudo] password for pi:
