glad you got it sorted all roads lead to rome the easiest solution always works best!

The game mode help. 4 tvs in my house and only 1 works with it.

@mitu Thank you. I sorted it. I changed the TV itself to "external speaker" only and the Pi to hdmi. It seems to work fine now. I get no audio at all when I choose "3.5" or "auto".

@oldspicy said in SOLVED - Audio output switching with toggle switch: How do I mark the post as solved? Edit the topic starting post and modify the title - append or prepend [solved] to it.

Thanks for answering, check that other users had the same problem, so check my settings thoroughly: thanks to this help guide: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Sound-Issues/ This step solved the problem for me: USING THE BUILT-IN HDMI AUDIO If you have a standard RPi and want to send audio over the HDMI connector then it should just work. In some instances though, you will need to manually modify the raspberry pi boot config file (sudo nano/boot/config.txt) and ADD the following lines to those already there: # forces HDMI mode hdmi_drive=2 # Setting hdmi_force_hotplug to 1 pretends that the HDMI hotplug signal is asserted, so it appears that a HDMI display is attached. In other words, HDMI output mode will be used, even if no HDMI monitor is detected. hdmi_force_hotplug=1 # Pretends all audio formats are supported by display, allowing passthrough of DTS/AC even when not reported as supported. # May not be needed for all HDMI devices hdmi_force_edid_audio=1 Once you've made the change, save the file, restart your Raspberry Pi, and move onto Step 2.

@DudeLebowski Did you find another way to connect bluetooth audio?

@webodan I don't think ES reads the list of Audio cards present in the system - the choices you see now are the default choices. Try using the instruction from the USB Audio FAQ page.
