Hi everyone,
I am a fresh user of the ULTRA++. I do very like the hardware of this product, but I am facing some issue with its driver…
I first try to install it on my current image, without success.
I finally managed to make it works on a fresh install of Rasbian.
Unfortunately, after some time (a few hours/reboots…), the driver stops working (no more sound).
When running “sudo systemctl status wm8960-soundcard.service”, I get:
● wm8960-soundcard.service - WM8960 soundcard service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/wm8960-soundcard.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2021-05-26 22:27:27 CEST; 1min 47s ago Process: 443 ExecStart=/usr/bin/wm8960-soundcard (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 443 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) May 26 22:27:24 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Starting WM8960 soundcard service...

May 26 22:27:27 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Failed to start WM8960 soundcard service.
And when running “journalctl -xe”, I get:

I have tried to google it and searched for solutions for already few hours, without luck.
Any help would be welcome !
Thank you in advance,
