I was using Pirate Audio: Headphone Amp for Raspberry Pi and it was working perfectly like a charm. But recently it doesn’t works no more and get some errors.
So I do a fresh install of mopidy (I was using raspotify) but sound it still doesn’t working.

I update the config file as you say and now the content is :

So have you tried to change some settings? E.g. switch to “F3-Playback”, or even select a different soundcard with F6? What do you see? Does any of the soundcards have a control setting (volume)?
Watching this thread with interest because I also have no sound on my new Audio Dac Shim on a Pi Zero 2W , have tried with both bullseye and bookwork, not as comprehesively as this new user. Using speaker-test with no audio.
