Is there audio out on the Fire3?

[v8dave]

Does the HDMI connection have digital audio on the Fire3?

I plan to use with the 43" LCD but would like to have audio is possible via the HDMI connection.

Anyone know if this will work?

Yes. My /etc/asound.conf file looks like:

Code: Select all

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 0   #If you want to set HDMI as output ,turn 0 to 1.
    device 1
}

ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 0   #If you want to set HDMI as output ,turn 0 to 1.
}

... which sends the audio down the HDMI output. Testing it with:

prompt% aplay /root/Music/test.wav

plays the sound through the attached TV

Hey, thanks for that information. As I am using the LCD4.3 display I need to find a suitable HDMI to AUDIO interface that is as small as possible.

Thanks again.
