I do have an issue to report. I was so close to having it just as I wanted it but this one seems to be a showstopper for me right now.
I know that the audio jack doesn't work on Linux right now, only HDMI audio. I have my RockPro64 connected to a monitor, so I'm using a HDMI to VGA adapter which also splits off the HDMI audio to a 3.5mm jack. Connected to that jack I have a set of speakers.
The issue is that within Recalbox the HDMI audio is either turned off or at 100% volume, with no in-between. The volume control does not work at all. It remains at 0% no matter what I try to change it to, but the actual volume output is always 100%. So now I can't have sound through those speakers because it's too loud. The speakers themselves have no in-built volume control. I tried looking at the config files and amixer, but there seems to be noting there either.
If you go into Kodi, that does have its own volume control that works just fine. It's just on Recalbox/Emulationstation where it doesn't work.
