(solved) How to make Hifiberry works with retropie?

[Keterelyon]

hello, sorry for my english because I'm not...but I make an effort...

I've got a RaspPI3B and a Hifiberry DAC+ standard but I don't know how to make it works under retropie?
How should I do? I found nothing on the forum, only persons with volume control problems so I assume that i'm really dumb :-/

I have tested my material with another program just for sound. everything works.

but in the raspberry configuration in the retropie menu I can see my hifiberry card

for exemple: RETROPIE-SETUP SCRIPT --> C CONFIGURATION / TOOLS --> 801 audiosetting - configure audio settings -->

4 choises:
1 AUTO
2 HEADPHONES - 3.mm jack
3 HDMI
4 MIxer - adjust output volume
R Reset to default

in the fouth menu, I press F6 in the popup there is:

• (default)
  0 bcm2835 ALSA
  1 snd_rpi_hifiberry_dacplus
  enter device name...

I select 1 snd_rpi_hifiberry_dacplus and I can See playback and capture volume for my Hifiberry card...but I can't select it. It's always bcm2835 ALSA witch is chosen...

I hope i'm understable...?

thx a lot!

more informations:

in the Raspi-config:

"7 Advanced options" --> "A4 Audio Force Audio out through HDMI or 3.5mm jack" --> "choose the audio output" there is only :

0 Auto
1 Force 3.5mm ...
2 force hdmi

The options to enable Hifiberry are not going to be in the RetroPie-Setup Script

You're going to have to follow the directions from Hifiberry's website:
