How to enable ES9023-based DAC hat on Rock64?

[lowry]

I booted mainline Arch Linux  kernel 5.11 and did not see the audio.

Tried with latest Armbian 5.10-21-rockchip64 and saw no audio either. 

aplay -l shows the following both with and without the DAC hat:

Code:

  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Find /usr -name '*9023*' gives no results.

Any hints where to move from there?

I played with all combinations of jumpers but to no avail.

My recommendation: Use a USB DAC and skip the I2S DACs.

I've used several USB DACs on Linux and even the Pinephone and have had to do nothing more than plug them in.
