Phat-beat doesn't work on Pi ZERO but only Pi ZERO W

Hi guys,

I just received my Pirate Radio kit and I have built one and it is working fine.

Then I am thinking switch the board to my old Pi ZERO with wifi dongle so I could make something new with Zero W.

But it seems no sound if I switch the board ( Same SD card)

I could see the VU meter works as usually but just no sound. I think the difference is only that I use one USB device in Zero for the wifi. but even though I remove the wifi dongle , it doesn't work either (the playlist contains some on-disk MP3s)

I assume the only difference of Zero and Zero W is build-in Wifi chip?

Here are some commands I tried but it seems the driver is fine and the DAC is detected:

pi@piradio:~/scripts $ aplay -L
null

In the speaker-test. No sound but VU meter is working.

Any thoughts?
