Working on using plexamp headless with a new RPI 5 and I can’t get the OS to recognize the audio when connected to my receiver (aplay -l shows no devices no matter what settings I make to config.txt). Found this post that talks about using a user service for pulseaudio instead, but I follow the steps and it doesn’t seem to start back up (the UI never comes back on the x:32500 url). What troubleshooting steps do I have to figure out what I’m doing wrong? The application log (~/.cache/Plexamp/log/Plexamp.log) doesn’t seem to show anything (which makes sense perhaps since I’m guessing the application never successfully launches)

after some searching found this in the logs (journalctl --user)
Figured it out. For those that run into this, it was having the user in the plexamp.service file. updated it to my user instead of removing the parameter completely
