When testing this on an Raspberry Pi with Raspbian Stretch, it works fine. I.e. when adding a hint section, the pcm device is listed when running "aplay -L".
But it does not work on the target platform I'm using. Is this an ALSA version issue ? How can I tell which version of ALSA is used on a particular platform ?
Regards
