Hi. I have a ?Dragonfly Red which is supposed to be a USB dac, and I am unable to connectit with alsa. Its seen by the system and here is what I get for the card under Alsa: 1 [v10 ]: USB-Audio - AudioQuest DragonFly Red v1.0 AudioQuest AudioQuest DragonFly Red v1.0 at usb-0000:00:14.0-10.2, full speed But if I try to use something like mpv to play anything with commands such as mpv --audio-device=alsa/usbstream, the system comes back with invalid type for card. If I do aplay -l I get for the card: card 1: v10 [AudioQuest DragonFly Red v1.0], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 So, how would I even designate the device and how would I get alsa to play it -- there is no volume control on the device which makes it even more complicated. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it?
