Enabling I2S audio card on ALSA, Debian 11, Linux kernel 5.10, Intel N4100

ar flag

I'm trying to find a set of guidelines to follow to be able to activate the I2S interface of my audio device.

I'm having the following environment: LattePanda Delta board (Intel N4100, with I2S interface), Debian 11, Linux Kernel 5.11. On my I2S interface, I have plugged a MAX98357A DAC on which are plugged 2 speakers (all the wiring has been thoroughly checked).

The main steps I've been trying so far are the following :

  • Updating/Upgrading Debian
  • Setting the BIOS options to enable I2S (especially I2S port owns I/O transfers)
  • Recompiling the kernel to enable the corresponding (or at least which looked so) configuration
  • Enabling/Disabling modules by editing /etc/modules and blacklist.conf
  • Enabling the Dummy audio interface (but I2S is not enabled either)
  • Reading the specs related to the N4100 CPU to find related information or guidelines (and found nothing)
  • Contacting the LattePanda team for further information (request ignored)

I'm adding this detail: I can flawlessly use my Intel HDA audio card (which works well with HDMI and speakers jack), and which is detected (pacmd list-cards) as soon as the snd_hda_intel module is enabled.

I haven't been able to make it work so far, and I would be really glad to have your recommendations/guidelines, thank you in advance.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
