Has anyone got analog out working with out a DAC? I've got MPDroid running on my nexus 4 and with "outputs"-> "USB DAC" unchecked I can't get a song to start playing (ie i press play and song timer stays at zero).

If I check "outputs"-> "USB DAC" , I can start the song, but I don't hear anything out of the Analog out

sudo alsamixer made it work, thanks

sudo alsamixer didnt work for me
it wont show any output devices. i do not have a dac and would prefer not to buy one. im using this as a mixer for a restarant. and am trying to keep it as small as possible.

Just found from, worked for me

Enabling Audio Output
By default, the RPi audio output is set to automatically select the digital HDMI interface if its being used, otherwise the analog audio output. You can force it to use a specific interface via the sound mixer controls. amixer allows command-line control of the mixer for the ALSA driver.

You can force the RPi to use a specific interface using the command amixer cset numid=3 N where the N parameter means the following: 0=auto, 1=analog, 2=hdmi. Therefore, to force the Raspberry Pi to use the analog output:

amixer cset numid=3 1
