Configure Raspberry Pi Audio HDMI port and Audio Jack

September 2, 2012 by Sanket Sonavane 1 Comment

Hi All,

Kindly refer my guide on installing Audio and Video Player here
Now you have Audio and Video Playback but the audio always comes from HDMI port and you want to have audio from Audio Jack as well.

Note: By default output will be automatic

Enter the following

Raspberry Pi to use the analog output:
sudo amixer cset numid=3 1

Change the value 1 with 0=auto, 1=headphones, 2=hdmi
To suit to your need.

I do not understand what auto exactly mean as with auto i always heard audio only from HDMI jack.
