No audio outputs in IRIS with BossDAC

Hi all,

First sorry if ask a noob question but I am new to modipy in raspian.

I have a HAT (Boss DAC HiFi [Master] pcm512x-hifi-0]) mounted on my RPi 3B+ board and it works well.
My problem is that after installing modipy and iris client, no sound is coming out from iris.
Whatever I am trying to play, there is no sound playing.

I deactivated the raspberry pi audio to force the sound into the dac but it failed.
I tried to force in modipy configuration file the device but it failed too
output = alsasink device=hw:BossDAC

I am running all latest version of all softwares.

Am I doing something wrong?

Here below some configuration of mine :

You should see some errors or listen sound from speaker

Try to play something and then provide the Mopidy (note spelling) log. Please provide all log output for that run of Mopidy i.e. include the startup logging.
