Seems like I’m having a similar issue on Odroid N2. Since the update to DietPi 9.0, the “USB-DAC” card is not detected anymore. Going back to 8.25.2 is a workround to address the problem at the moment.
Selecting the soundcard in dietpi-config results in this.
```auto
[INFO] DietPi-Set_hardware | Applying new sound card settings...
[OK] DietPi-Set_hardware | Setting in /boot/dietpi.txt adjusted: CONFIG_SOUNDCARD=usb-dac
[FAILED] DietPi-Set_hardware | Unable to find any USB DAC on your system, reverting to "none"...
[OK] DietPi-Set_hardware | Setting in /boot/dietpi.txt adjusted: CONFIG_SOUNDCARD=none
[FAILED] soundcard usb-dac | Exited with error
```
That’s the aplay -l output
```auto

Seems like the issue is still there… Any ideas on how to fix it?

Tried the update to 9.4 yesterday, issue persists. There are workarounds right now, so it’s not too critical, just would be nice to get it working again.

Are you talking about a different workaround than going back to 8.25.2? I’d like to avoid that

Does it work when you select the “AU670AU671” card directly at the bottom area of the sound card menu?
And can you show the output of this command:
```sh
cat /proc/asound/cards
```
