        Can you post your config.txt ? I suppose you've added the necessary options there to activate the audio.

              Make sure you're using either GPIO 12/13 or 18/19 for the audio, then add to your config.txt just

              dtoverlay=audremap,pins_12_13
              

              or

              dtoverlay=audremap,pins_18_19
              

              depending on which GPIO pins you use. Remove any other options that you added.

                  @iLouzze ok, I already found the problem and the headphone option did appeared but when I try to open the audio menu again it tells me this:

                    You can add it at the end of config.txt.

                    Did you disable the onboard audio (dtparam=audio=on) from config.txt ? You can use either the Audio menu in RetroPie or raspi-config's audio options, the result should be the same.

                      @mitu ok I already have my speakers working. It was just a code I needed to write below the ```

                      Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
