Hi Anton,
Did you solve this issue ?
If not, the Zoom H5 works fine with the unstable version 4.0, of course as audio interface (tested in stereo mode and bus powered) http://locusonus.org/streambox/download/streambox-4.0-dev-armv7.txz http://locusonus.org/streambox/download/streambox-4.0-dev-armv7.txz
I'm not sure this change something for you but all the overlays are disabled (commented) in my /boot/config.txt file. Only the audio dtparam are enabled
dtparam=audio=on dtparam=i2s=on
the RPi will detect the H5 without nothing to do more than adjust settings, save and start streaming. One point is really required in my case. Because the onboard audio interface is activate, the SOUNDCARD setting must be set to 2 (if you configure the streambox manually). List audio devices (or captures devices) in the system management panel and you should see the ID use by this sound card.
0 [b1 ]: bcm2835_hdmi - bcm2835 HDMI 1 bcm2835 HDMI 1 1 [Headphones ]: bcm2835_headpho - bcm2835 Headphones bcm2835 Headphones 2 [H5 ]: USB-Audio - H5 ZOOM Corporation H5 at usb-0000:01:00.0-1.1, full speed
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 2: H5 [H5], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Note, as other USB audio devices, the system in the stable image of the streambox (v3.2) is probably too old to detect the Zoom.
Best,

Thanks for asking. I have a keyboard, mouse and monitor connected to the RPi. The keyboard and mouse are not responsive, on the monitor I see status lines that fill the screen that I don’t understand.
That leads to a thought that I will try. Perhaps having the keyboard and mouse are interfering, so I will try this without having them connected.
Regards, Anton

So your soundcard is not listed there obviously. Could you attach a monitor to the pi so you can see what is going on?

Thanks. In the Streambox admin page in the Audio Configuration setting – I can’t change it – the soundcard down arrow is greyed out
When I select System Management > Audio Devices I get this: 0 [ALSA ]: bcm2835_alsa - bcm2835 ALSA
bcm2835 ALSAI can reboot and shutdown the RPi from Streambox System Management – so I know that Streambox is talking to the RPi
After reboot if I start the Stream I get the following status message: AUDIO ENCODER RESTART: WAIT…
The Stream log reads:

So I am baffled.

Try changing soundcard configuration to a setting corresponding to output of aplay -l

Looking for help with using Streambox with RPi 4 and a Zoom H5 set up as an audio USB interface.
When starting the Stream in Streambox I get the following error message:
AUDIO ENCODER ERROR: CAN'T OPEN AUDIO DEVICE
Rpi Is connected to network via ethernet
Zoom H5 has USB configured for Audio interface
Using a Rasperian OS – the RPi will detect and identify the Zoom H5, the Steambox wont.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Looking to use this roe Reveil this weekend.
Regards,
Anton
