Solved!

Glancing through the log once again, I saw that CUDA was set to "all." I know that I have an old video card, not adequate for HQPlayer CUDA offload. There's no GUI CUDA on/off switch for hqplayerd, so I did a quick search, found the way to turn CUDA on or off was through the hqplayerd.xml file. A quick edit to change CUDA to "0" in the xml file, restart, and I have sound!

Thanks again, @blackhole, for bearing with me through all these attempts. Much appreciated.

Have now followed all the suggestions, but still no volume, and log file looks just the same. :-(

Yes, have set username and password now. By the way, I don't think the network interface is the problem. Though I hid the information in the part of the log copy I pasted here, hqplayerd does find the correct network interface. However, I'll hardcode it in hqplayerd.xml and restart hqplayerd just to see whether anything changes.

Setting user and password. On console:

sudo hqplayerd -s your_user your_password

Hi, regarding your 19:41 UTC message (and thank you for working with me to try to see what I'm doing wrong here):

Yes, I'm using the latest version and interface is set to Auto. Once I get hqplayerd reinstalled, I will try turning off UPnP freewheel. I know the filter/modulator combination is not the problem, because the same one works in Xubuntu and has worked back when I was using Arcolinux. The DAC supports native DSD. (Audirvana Studio works fine at DSD512.)

Sigh. Sorry, I screwed up. After removing the /etc/hqplayer directory and the .hqplayer directory in my user's home folder, I tried to set a username and password, but received an error message saying /etc/hqplayer/hqplayerd.xml was missing. So I thought I would remove and reinstall hqplayerd. But I see "target not found." (Pacman is working correctly in case this is unexpected.)

Edit: Never mind, I'm an idiot. Reinstalling with yay.

See my last comment. After you should re-install it to restore default hqplayerd.xml

Maybe you should edit hqplayerd.xml file and change auto in

<upnp freewheel="0" interface="auto">

with the name of network interface given by networkctl

I suppose you are using last version 6.0.1 First check less demanding filter/modulator combinations otherwise if your PC is not enough powerful you could have silence or distorted sound Be sure that DAC is supporting native DSD, otherwise you should configure hqplayer for DoP

Audio reproduction will stop after 30 min. without a license
