I just installed a new Pinsound board into my Hook and after a few errors, got the Hook files to load. Heard the Pinsound Lady, music, etc. Tried to play a game and no sound. Reinstalled the sound files again and the same problem. I here the typical beeps on the boot sequence from the Pinsound board but no sounds once the game starts. I have also updated the firmware.

I have an original MPU and stock speakers. I verified the green light on the daughter board and that the ribbon cable is plugged in with the red wire to the "red one" designation on the board.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Quoted from PinSound:

Thanks for helping
The original volume potentiometer is working a tad differently when connected to the PinSound board:
- turned to the far left, it will allow you to set the next sound package available on your flash drive (if you have multiple sound packages)
- in a general way, you have to turn your potentiometer up, to get some sounds (or the PinSound board will just think you want to set your volume to 0)
Maybe I should add a small voice message warning if I detect the volume set to 0, to remind user to turn up their knob volume? What do you think?

Hi @pinsound. Thanks for your support and the extra insight. I think adding a voice prompt would be a great idea!
