giuliomoro Hmmm this is very weird, sorry to hear that. Are the Bela capes connected the correct way around? Can you please run at a terminal i2cdetect -y -r 2 and post the results?
mgurevich Okay, I'm dumb. I was using the Audio Expander without the Bela itself. I didn't even know we ordered audio expanders... just pulled the first board out of the box and assumed it was a Bela. I will delete this thread if I can.
