Disable audio channel if you need custom audio routing e.g. via A2DP or AUX.
RT audio / Qt
This setting may help with audio stuttering when using Android Auto over WiFI.
This will select the devices used by PulseAudio. Make sure you save the settings upon initial setup and/or if you change your audio hardware. This is needed to get the volume bars working.
Note: If PulseAudio did not detect any audio hardware, you get the note in the box. If audio hardware was detected, but not defined as PulseAudio's default hardware in
/etc/pulse/client.conf
,not selected

Sets the audio volume
Note: To prevent an ineffective initial volume level, if the current volume is lower than STARTUP_VOL_MIN
(in /boot/crankshaft/crankshaft_env.sh
) during startup, volume is reset to 50% as a failsafe.
0
Set the volume for your audio input device (mic).
Note: To prevent an ineffective initial volume level, if the current volume is lower than STARTUP_VOL_MIN
(in /boot/crankshaft/crankshaft_env.sh
) during startup, volume is reset to 50% as a failsafe.
If audio device is changed pulseaudio daemon will restart - reconnect bluetooth is needed to work again!

Raspberry Pi - Onboard
This list contains the DAC devices Crankshaft can set up. If a supported DAC is detected, it will be pre-selected from this list.
To set it up your DAC, check the box
Exec setup on save
and save.
Note: If you select custom
the default input and output devices are removed from Pulseaudio /etc/pulseaudio/client.conf
and volume control sliders will not work because Crankshaft doesn't know which device should be controlled. The config for Crankshaft-supported DACs will be removed from /boot/config.txt
.
