You might need to adjust asound.conf to use 48kHz sample clock.
AlsaMixer Controls
The below picture shows the currently available control-widgets exported by the wm8983 driver.
Note that some features of the chip have not been implemented yet and thus are not shown in the diagram.
The text written in blue is the widgets that you can control: i.e. by using the 'alsamixer' or 'amixer' application.
Headphone
Typical Setting:
Control | Setting |
|---|---|
Left Output Mixer | only LDAC set |
Right Output Mixer | only RDAC set |
Headphone (Switch) | set (un-mute) |
Out4 | off → output VMID |
Additional Setting:
Control | Setting |
|---|---|
Playback (Volume) | desired volume (digital) |
Headphone (Volume) | desired volume (analog) |
Headphone Playback ZC | volume is changed on crossing zero |
Speaker
Typical Setting:
Control | Setting |
|---|---|
Left Output Mixer | only LDAC set |
Right Output Mixer | only LDAC set |
Speaker Inversion | set |
Speaker (Switch) | set (un-mute) |
This setting is used, if a single speaker is connected to the SPEAKER pins of the Trizeps module; e.g. pins are used as SPEAKER_P and SPEAKER_N.
It is possible to attach two speaker with reduced performance, e.g. using pins as SPEAKER_L and SPEAKER_R.

Accessing Codec Registers
For debugging purpose codec registers can be written by using I2C commands.
$ i2cset -fy 2 0x1A <regdata> <data>
regdata[7:1] | register to access. |
regdata[0] | MSB (data[8]) of data to be written |
data[7:0] | lower 8bits of data to be written to register |
