        @cyperghost said in Volume Control for DAC Hifiberry devices (I2S devices):

        Edit etc/asound.cfg

        Is that meant to say etc/asound.conf ?

          Yes, of course! Thank you :)

          But maybe you can answer this to.
          Without this config I was not able to alter volume through the ES-sound settings. It was always 100%. Can you confirm this habbit?

            I can confirm that. My file looks like this:

            pcm.hifiberry {
            type softvol
            slave.pcm "plughw:0"
            control.name "PCM"
            control.card 0
            }

            pcm.!default {
            type plug
            slave.pcm "hifiberry"
            }

            ctl.!default {
            type hw
            card 0
            }
