                @hex # For more options and information see

                http://rpf.io/configtxtreadme

                Some settings may impact device functionality. See link above for details

                uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode

                #hdmi_safe=1

                uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible

                and your display can output without overscan

                #disable_overscan=1

                uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console

                goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border

                #overscan_left=16
                #overscan_right=16
                #overscan_top=16
                #overscan_bottom=16

                uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus

                overscan.

                #framebuffer_width=1280
                #framebuffer_height=720

                uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output

                #hdmi_force_hotplug=1

                uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)

                #hdmi_group=1
                #hdmi_mode=1

                uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in

                DMT (computer monitor) modes

                #hdmi_drive=2

                uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or

                no display

                #config_hdmi_boost=4

                uncomment for composite PAL

                #sdtv_mode=2

                #uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
                gpu_mem=400
                arm_freq=1350
                over_voltage=5
                sdram_freq=500
                core_freq=500
                gpu_freq=400

                Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces

                #dtparam=i2c_arm=on
                #dtparam=i2s=on
                #dtparam=spi=on

                Uncomment this to enable the lirc-rpi module

                #dtoverlay=lirc-rpi

                Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README

                Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)

                dtparam=audio=on
                gpu_mem_256=128
                gpu_mem_512=256
                gpu_mem_1024=256
                overscan_scale=1
                display_rotate=1

                    So its working now?

                    BTW I was asking you for the es_settings.conf file. Also you should quote the Code you want to insert using this symbol ``` and it will look like this

                      @normanmsu96 huh. Did you set it to speaker at any point per chance? The default is PCM so I'm surprised that that was changed for you.

                      Glad you're sorted though.

                        @pjft I guess I had changed that but I don't recall doing it
