HiFiBerryOs 64 - Alpha - Not able to connect to WiFi on Zero 2

[hanneshier]

Describe the bug
Im not able to connect my Pi Zero W 2 to the WiFi. The Pi does not create an Access Point, adding a wpa_supplicant.conf did not work (manually or with the Pi Imgager Tool). I was not able to connect via a display, too. When connected to a display, mouse and keyboard, the command line always changed to the Hifiberry GUI after a few seconds. There, I was not able to make any input with the mouse or keyboard.

HiFiBerryOS version
Tested with the following versions:
HiFiBerryOs 64 - Alpha 5
HiFiBerryOs 64 - Alpha 4
HiFiBerryOs 64 - Alpha 2

HiFiBerry sound card
DAC+ Zero 1.0.1

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Flash the beta to a SD card
2. (OPTIONAL: add wpa_supplicant.conf)
3. Check for Access Point
4. Connect Pi to a display

Expected behavior
Pi should crate Access Point or use wpa_supplicant.conf

I ran into this issue with Beta8 as well. I'm running a DAC2 ADC Pro on my Pi Zero 2 W. I haven't tried configuring wpa_supplicant.conf manually.

I have this issue too. This isn't really my realm of expertise but I thought I would note what I found.

After some investigating, it appears that the wlan0 device is missing entirely, so there's no way the OS can connect to existing WiFi or create the setup network. WiFi does work on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Alpha 8.

After looking through a few generic wifi on raspberry pi guides, I tried creating /etc/network/interfaces, as only a backup file existed, but that hasn't changed anything in terms of functionality.
