      Not yet. What I got for now. I'll do a test

      pi@retropie:~ $ pi@retropie:~ $ amixer scontrols -D default
      Simple mixer control 'Master',0
      Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
      pi@retropie:~ $ amixer scontrols -D sysdefault
      Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0
      pi@retropie:~ $ amixer scontrols -D hw
      Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ amixer scontrols -D audio doesn't work. I must use preset value like default.
      audio = my audiocard

        Do you get audio in emulators or using the ALSA speakter-test utility ?

        No sound for both

        Does dtparam affect it?

        # Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
        dtparam=audio=on

          No. In fact almost all of the video/audio related params you added have the effect as they did before.

          No sound for both

          Did you remove any ALSA configuration ? What's the out[put ofspeaker-test ?

            yes

            with card = default and device = master (seems to be the good combo.... but no sound )

              @DTEAM I don't see an error in speaker-test output. Make sure the output isn't muted by any chance.

                How can I see if it's muted or not ? The sound level is always at 100% in the EmulationStation UI or in the alsamixer UI

                  @DTEAM in alsamixer, the muted state is printed with an M underneath the volume slider. You can toggle the muted state by pressing m.

                    Good news, It finally worked, It was on mute by default (I didn't use my keyboard in Alsamixer).

                    But now I have a new problem. I played with pulse audio in my "Audio UI" and now my Pi freeze all the time and I have no sound and no video. How can I reactivate Pulse Audio (now enable to create stream) . I already used "Reset to default" but nothing change. I lost options in my UI with my mess.

                    How can I reset my audio setup

                      Reset to default I think only applies to the ALSA settings and just removes any RetroPie configuration file. In your case, it's not going to do anything, since RetroPie didn't configure your USB gamepad.

                      I lost options in my UI with my mess.

                      No idea, try to remove the packages you've installed and reboot.

                        It works again. I re-install PipeWire and AudioPulse from rasPi config and everything works great. thanks for your support
