RaspberryPi Image and No Audio

Anyone else having audio issues with the RaspberryPi? I did not see any threads on this subject, but I could have missed it.

No audio using CubicSDR on the image. I also did not get any audio by going to youtube and playing a video. No audio from anything. When I select the output choice, the volume drops all the way down. When I increase the volume I still cannot hear anything. Went to the raspi-confi area and also selected 3.5 jack. No change.

My setup...
RPi 3 Image – V0.4 (19th Nov 2018)
RaspberryPI 3 B+
Monitor: VGA monitor. Using HDMI to VGA converter. (I also tested this pi with a HDMI equipped monitor with speakers. No sound thru HDMI either.)
Using audio jack to amplified speakers.
RSP1

I confirmed my hardware is good by running the RaspberryPI with the Raspbian image and I experience no audio issues. On either the VGA (w/speakers) or HDMI monitor.

I have reimaged my Samsung 32gb SD card several times and still experiencing the same no audio issue.

Any ideas what may be wrong?

thanks

I get exactly the same here, no audio after connecting to a HTMI monitor. I did a Google search for this and there are dozens of others with the same problems, along with some suggestions for a fix but I have not got it working yet.

You can try dropping to Terminal and selecting the correct output vs having it on AUTO

sudo raspi-config

Not sure how current the below images are.

I went to the terminal and did the switch from Auto to 3.5 jack.
However, this had no effect for me on getting the sound issue corrected.

That's strange. Let me see if anything is posted online with a possible fix.

I have same issue with no sound on the new image v0.4.
I have tried switching the audio over and auto selecting. nothing worked.
checked ver 3 and that's fine so my hardware is working.

Can any one give a fix, or will we have to wait for a fix on the image?

is there an idiots guide to installing new drivers for the sound card?

Thanks.

Has anyone solved this issue?
I have just set up a Pi 3B with the downloaded image V0.5 and have no sound
even when trying various sources.
Sound works using the original Raspberry Pi image.
Very disappointing as this is the first time I have managed to get my RSP1 to be
recognised in a Linux based operating system.

Hi all...
Same problem here. Loaded 0.4 on my Pi 3B+ ... Cubic comes up nicely but no audio on the on board jack. Changed the settings in config to always come up on the jack .... no audio. Tried a sound card; card recognized the only option I get on Cubic is Pulse Audio .... no other modem options come up. Is there a new release to take care of this problem.
