Troubleshooting • Re: Switch audio output via CLI

$

0
Using a rpi-5,
The PI is connected to my TV via HDMI, sound works fine. However I have a need to be able to switch Audio output from the HDMI over to the Audio output jack when I run a certain program, then switch it back to the HDMI port when done...without rebooting.

Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so how (or a pointer to a clue) ?

Regards,
Jim

Sounds unlikely to me.

Can you describe the "Audio output jack" on your RPi[5] board?



For an RPi model on which a hardware audio port exists you could use the appropriate option in the raspi-config utility from the shell in non-interactive mode.

Ref: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... config-cli

and specifically -
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... ml#audio-2
Specify the audio output destination.

sudo raspi-config nonint do_audio <N>
On Raspberry Pi 4B, you can use the following options:

0: bcm2835 headphone jack

1: vc4-hdmi-0

2: vc4-hdmi-1

For a full list of possible <N> values, see the numbers used in the interactive raspi-config version of this option.
