    Dear team,

    thanks for the great work and tutorial.
    I have, however, a problem: it seems the graphic equalizer is not working.
    It does not matter if I increase (to the maximum) or decrease (to the minimum) the bass (low frequencies): the result is the same (I tested the same method with other equalizer: stereo amp, iPhone equalizer, PC equalizer and I could clearly hear the difference).

    The problem is regardless the sound output I use (bluetooth via -o <bluetooth_adapter>) or the jack.

    Here’s the debug info („enceintes“ is the name of my bluetooth speaker):

    Is there anything else to activate somewhere to make the graphic equalizer work?

    I also tried changing the soundcard in the dropdown list in the advanced options:
    plugequal – Equalizer for plughw:0,0 –> SQUEEZELITE_PARAMETER=-o plug:plugequal -a 80::: -s 192.168.1.10 -o enceintes
    or
    enceintes – Mes enceintes bluetooth –> SQUEEZELITE_PARAMETER=-o plug:enceintes -a 80:4:: -s 192.168.1.10 -o enceintes

    none of them seem to be working. Equalizer settings won’t affect the sound.
