[SOLVED] No audio for Spotify with USB DAC

[thexperiments]

Ok got it working for now.
I changed the alsa config in /etc/alsa/conf.d/_deviceout.conf
form

Code:

pcm._deviceout {
type copy
slave.pcm "hw:2,0"
}

to

Code:

pcm._deviceout {
type copy
slave.pcm "plughw:2,0"
}

and rebooted.

However I think it would be great if this is the default (my gues alsa plugins are needed to feed 32 bit to my DAC)
I'm also not sure if this is persistent or if moOde updates the also config at any point... Would be great to have feedback from someone with deeper knowledge

If anyone tries to use this fix be aware that you need to know the card id/index of your dac (2 for me) but most DACs should end up there (0 HDMI, 1 Headphonejack, 2 USB)
