Configuring MPD may seem intimidating, but actually there is a good how-to to do just that (link above) and NCMPCPP is your ncurses-based app that MPD will connect to (NCMPCPP is ncurses-based, so technically a text-based user interface).

Both are available in standard repositories for Ubuntu (and derivatives) users.

If you’re using ALSA, you don’t need to do anything.

It’s configured by default. You can change any of the #optional values if you have something specific in mind.

audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "My ALSA Device"
# device "hw:0,0" # optional
# mixer_type "hardware" # optional
# mixer_device "default" # optional
# mixer_control "PCM" # optional
# mixer_index "0" # optional
}

Where were you guys when I was struggling ?
Attached screenshot shows my first usable attempt. I haven't had the time to progress since then.

I plan to play around with ncurses to set up new configs soon.
Could each of you post your ncmpcpp config (for educational purposes), please?
TIA.
