Hdmi audio 410c : checkbox

device
1

Earlier when i used the checkbox v2.2 (manifest.has_audio_playback == ‘True’" evaluates to true) for this job (com.canonical.certification::audio/detect-playback-devices)

Name Version Rev Developer Notes
checkbox-snappy 2.2 860 ce-certification-qa devmode

Now i am using the latest built checkbox https://code.launchpad.net/checkbox-snappy , but job audio/detect-playback-devices is failing.

vinaysimha@localhost:~$ sudo aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: DB410c [DB410c], device 0: WCD msm8x16_wcd_i2s_rx1-0 []

card 0: DB410c [DB410c], device 1: ADV7533 adv7511-1 []

alsa_pcm_info is shipped with a provider.

if there’s a bin directory in the provider, all executable files from that dir are available for jobs to use.

If you want to use the program directly, use the path:
/snap/checkbox-snappy/current/providers/plainbox-provider-snappy/bin/alsa_pcm_info

Could you provide a bit more information about that failure? Maybe some logs.

BTW.

If you wish to run one concrete job, without having to go through all the UI, you can invoke:
checkbox-snappy.checkbox-cli run JOB_NAME
e.g.
checkbox-snappy.checkbox-cli run com.canonical.certification::after-suspend-audio/detect-playback-devices

i am able to resolve by running the manifest job (com.canonical.plainbox::collect-manifest)

set true for has_audio_playback.
“com.canonical.certification::has_audio_playback”: true

i need help on this topic.
