Gtking-pro no sound on 3.5jack

Help & Support Operating System
1

Hello, magicians

I’m super new to the CoreElec, just got it installed on internal of my GT-King Pro and for some reason I have no sound on my 3.5jack, I can’t check HDMI/Bluetooth, because right now I’m out of devices with speakers on those outs. I tried switching all audio modes, none produced any sound, nor system kodi sounds, or any movies or airplay streams… any ideas where to poke ?

Make sure that the selected audio device is PCM (analog)

Try installing the latest nightly build and see if that fixes the problem.

Thanks for answering, yeah I tried all available modes :confused:

I’m not sure how to use nightly builds though, the link from welcome page doesn’t feature any builds, only archive folder has some, any guides how to use nightly build properly ? Any way to install them from already installed CE on internal ?

Cheers,
Vadym

SMB into your box and drop the latest .tar into .Update Folder.

Reboot.

P.S. Double checked on Android TV, everything works fine out the 3.5mm there, so no hardware issue.

Have you tried to not leave on default but actively select the AML-AUGESOUND, PCM?

7

Yeah, tried all of them, with no luck

Maybe take a closer look at your 3.5mm audio jack, if it’s wiring confronts GTKing’s connector.
It’s a know thing that different manufacturers use different order in wiring these connectors.

9

I’m not sure what do you mean, I checked correct functionality on a dual-boot ATV OS on the same port, not sure how to check wiring tho

10

Just saying that there are different wires going to different pins on jacks/connectors.

Look at this article and the table in it to see what I mean.

11

The GTK Pro has a DAC, so it’s possible that it behaves differently from GTK and may need its own DTB.

12

Yeah, pro has per-channel ESS9018JPA dacs and RT6862D amps, any chance this problem can get looked into ?

13

We’ll look into it.

Thanks a lot!

Hey, thanks, will try! Putting in the update folder will work fine ?

No, this is just a device tree. Save it on your computer and copy to your gtking-pro in some folder (like downloads). Then overwrite original device tree.

mount -o remount,rw /flash
cp /flash/dtb.img /flash/dtb.img_orig
cp g12b_s922x_beelink_gt_king-analog_sound.dtb /flash/dtb.img
mount -o remount,ro /flash
sync
reboot

Doesn’t boot anymore, stuck at Android TV splash screen (it shows up for a sec before CE is booted), now it’s permanent, unreachable via ssh as well

You had to do something wrong. How do you boot CoreELEC - from USB stick or SD card?

It’s on internal, dualboot with ATV
