I have now the following version installed:
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="12"
VERSION="12 (bookworm)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bookworm
ID=debian
Kernel: Linux 6.6.20+rpt-rpi-v8
Architecture: arm64
It is the desktop version 64bit. I have not installed anything, but have ran updates with
sudo apt-get update
I have sounds in my created directory: robot/sounds.
I was only using HDMI to troubleshoot. I am not intending to use the HDMI in my project however, so I won't ask anymore about HDMI.
I am trying to play sounds through a speaker connected to the AV Jack using "aplay"
I will be connecting to the Pi via SSH and command line.
For testing the sound, the instructions I am going by are to make sure I am in the sound file directory, then type:
aplay horn.wav
The terminal prints out:
irobot@irobot:~/robot/sounds $ aplay horn.wav
Playing raw data 'horn.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono
A very strange grinding sound comes out of the speaker for either of the sounds I test.
Is "aplay" still a valid command for this purpose?
Was I wrong to install the desktop version?
What further troubleshooting can I do?
I appreciate the education I am getting on the project and from you. Sound is not necessarily simple on Linux I am learning.
