Having issues using PI 4B with a turntable and Sonos Beam 2

D

 

Hello,

I’m trying to use the instructions from this Github repo ( https://github.com/basdp/USB-Turntables-to-Sonos-with-RPi/issues ) to connect my Turntable to my Sonos Beam 2.

I got a AT-LP120XBT-USB turntable which I connected directly to my Pi 4B via USB.

According to arecord I am getting info inside (I can see volume fluctuating), but I get nothing on the speaker.

For whatever reason when I open the ip on port 8000, I get nothing on the Server Status.

When I tried following this tutorial: https://www.instructables.com/Add-Aux-to-Sonos-Using-Raspberry-Pi/ I got to the mount point part (sometimes I just needed to restart the service for it work)

I tried setting the Turntable output to both phono/line.

If you have any advice for me, I’d be grateful.

Thank you!

Can you listen to your turntable from the Sonos speaker jack? That might help you get the USB input working.

Can you hear the audio stream from a browser on a different computer? That will confirm streaming is working.

Getting Sonos to open the stream I haven’t fooled with.

I managed to make it work. It was something related to the services not starting properly.

Write down what you did, if you need to update the Pi’s operating system you will thank yourself for the note.

I have a pile of Pi How-To notes for just that situation here and it saves many hours of time when switching to a new distribution.
