I2S audio with PCM5102a

ESPHome
1

Hi all,

I have a ESP32-VROOM and a PCM5102a DAC in order to be able to stream from HA to my olf hifi system.

I followed the I2S audio doc and verified my cabling … but no sound !

Anyone has an idea ?

Relevant config:

# I2S Audio Output configuration
i2s_audio:
  i2s_lrclk_pin: GPIO25
  i2s_bclk_pin: GPIO26
  id: i2s_audio1

# Media Player configuration
media_player:
  - platform: i2s_audio
    name: "ESP32 Audio Streamer"
    dac_type: external
    i2s_dout_pin: GPIO22
    mode: mono
    i2s_audio_id: i2s_audio1

@ananyevgv you requested this feature, did you implement it successfully ?

I remember on this board I had to bridge 2 contacts with solder on the back of the board.

I’m getting this exact same issue. See I²S DAC and ESP32 - media player crashes ESP32 - #3 by johndoe47

I’ve tested with both the PCM5102A and MAX98357A I²S DAC, same issue. I have succesfully played audio with the MAX98357 using some Arduino example code so I know my hardware is fine.

This is where it hangs, and subsequently gets triggered by the watchdog and reboots:

Any help on how to troubleshoot this would be very welcome!

Hello, I have the same issue. ESP32 WROOM + PCM5102A. No sound, and in the logs I get the error message about the long operation time. Same problem for two setups. Did you manage to get it working?

Got similar issue, error’s about long time for an operation and suddenly reboot.
I’m able to get a sound by connecting XSMT contact to 3.3v.
Also only web radios are played, TTS and local media causes a reboot for my ESP32-S3 dev kit.
