Hi all,

I recently bought a very cheap Volca Sample. Seller said that his sound card broke while Volca was connected to it, and since then there is no sound coming out of the headphone jack. Internal speaker works.

I've opened up the Volca, removed the internal speaker and soldered a new audio jack to it, but output is very noisy (and mono, obviously).

I've also noticed a broken chip near the audio output jack:

Does anyone know the name of this chip and if it can be ordered from AliExpress or Amazon?

If not, does anyone know a good way to reduce noise on my hacked speaker output?

Thanks in advance!
