Even logging in as my Kodi user, I still only got the dummy device in pavucontrol. Logging in as admin, I could see all devices. I decided to just reformat and set up Kodi the old way. It seems that part of the problem is my soundbar or TV passing the audio to the soundbar. Alsa stops working after a few minutes if there is no content playing, or if I play a Youtube stream the audio stutters, then stops working. If I turn off my TV and back on, and start playing some local content within a minute or two the audio is fine. If I can't figure it out I'll create my own support thread, since my problem is seemingly unrelated to this setup.
Thanks for the help though! I learned a little about audio setup.

have the same problem now.
I update to KODI v17 beta 3 and don't start after booting...
It looks like it boot into openbox. when I open a console there
and start Kodi it works...
So there must be a problem with autostart...

Do you need to use a window manager (ie. openbox) ?
I'm interested in using KMS-mode for lower latency in emulators.

Hi and thanks for this great tutorial, I just switched from openelec.
But I have one question, how can I switch the keyboard layout to germane "qwertz", if I type in KODI there is no german layout...?
Thank you very much in advance...

Hello, thanks for the post.
When I autostart Kodi from booting, and select emulationstation via advanced launcher, it launches. BUT when I choose a rom, it doesnt load the roam; instead it returns to emulationstation. But if I start kodi via terminal, typing "kodi" and start emulationstation via advanced launcher, then select a rom, it starts as it should be. Any idea what is happening?
Thanks!
