I have attempted a number of suggestions, but for some reason, I do not get audio (via HDMI) from the Pironman Pi 5 (in the case). I am using an HDMI equipped TV. The speaker icon does not show, and raspi-config only blinks when attempting to select the AUDIO line.
Has anyone dealt successfully with this?
I also run tigervnc, x11 not wayland and the 3.5 screen which all are currently working. There is no sound on remote vnc.
Have you try with different HDMI cable?
Have you try in both HDMI output?
And of course, reboot between each tests.
Which OS are you using?
All updates are done?
Yes, of swapping out cable.

Ok, another test to be sure which part cause the issue is to disassemble Pironman5 and connect raspberry pi 5 directly to TV and see if speaker icône get able in taskbar. If it’s work, issue from usb\hdmi board.
Weirdyguy is right.
Make sure your HDMI display has speakers. After successfully connecting the display to the case, right-click the volume icon and switch the audio channel to HDMI for the speakers to work properly.
If the display is connected directly to the Raspberry Pi 5, the speakers should work; however, if the display is connected to the Raspberry Pi 5 through a USB-HDMI adapter and the speakers do not work, then it indicates an issue with the USB-HDMI adapter. We will send you a new USB-HDMI adapter as a replacement.
If the display is connected directly to the Raspberry Pi 5 and the speakers still do not work, then there may be an issue with the display’s speakers or the HDMI cable.
Thank you Mr Mod:
There is no speaker icon.
The audio selection in system on rasp-config flashes but returns to default menu.
HDMI cable in position 1 is connected to HDMI on TV -
I have tried with internal tv speakers and with powered speakers plugged into TV
For those reading along, there is no headphones/speaker jack on the Pironman case.
I have attempted many different suggestions in /boot/firmware/config.txt.
I have installed / uninstalled pulse/alas audio.
I would be happy to share SSH if you would like to see what is missing or what I have messed-up.
Have you try to plug HDMI cable directly to rpi5 board, without pironman5 board? For this you’ll need micro HDMI to HDMI cable.
Just a guess as you’re using the 3.5 inch display. Is the correct hdmi output selected for sound ?
Preferences → Audio Device Settings, and then choose “HDMI” or “HDMI 1”
Good point.. but see above.
Yes, I do have it configured to use 3x5 via GIPO and that works. Am currently connected to Television video/audio through HDMI.
Sorry, I should have read more carefully.
Same for me, I was so confused, I didn’t see you have 3.5 inches display. I can try it by my side, I have one 3.5 display on his box. I’ll try with my rpi4 mounted with pironman v2.
I confirmed, I made a new installation of bookworm 64 desktop, install 3.5 display drivers, plug the little display, it still on boot screen
With normal display on my TV and there’s no speaker icon.
So if you want to get any audio on your device, and because there’s no 3.5mm Jack, the only way to get sound is Bluetooth speakers or maybe usb-to-jack adaptor if it exists. Or if your tv have Bluetooth…
When I disconnect HDMI and boot it, that’s what I got.
What do
aplay -l # is hdmi working/recognised?
and
amixer info # where is sound routed?
show?
don@Rasp-DFD:~ $ sudo aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
don@Rasp-DFD:~ $ sudo amixer info
Card default ‘C615’/‘HD Webcam C615 at usb-xhci-hcd.0-1.2, high speed’
Mixer name : ‘USB Mixer’
Components : ‘USB046d:082c’
Controls : 3
Simple ctrls : 1
I did note that VLC thinks the sound card is the webcam.
I have no clue what software needs to be installed.
Wasn’t expecting that! Was expecting the sound card with hdmi to be reported. Something more like
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: vc4hdmi0 [vc4-hdmi-0], device 0: MAI PCM i2s-hifi-0 [MAI PCM i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: vc4hdmi1 [vc4-hdmi-1], device 0: MAI PCM i2s-hifi-0 [MAI PCM i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
I.e with hdmi in there somewhere.
Can you change the default sound card from within alsamixer gui? Or did you already try that?
Maybe try
dtparam=audio=off
In config.txt? If not already tried.
I can’t try above myself as I don’t have anysuch device.
