https://bbs.archlinux.org – I'm having problems trying to get my HDMI audio output to work correctly. By default, with or without and external monitor connected, the audio is heard from my notebook speakers (or from the headphones, when I plug them in). My external speakers are connected to the external HDMI monitor, so they should sound whenever the HDMI audio output is being used.The controls/levels I get in alsamixer are these:I'm not sure if S/PDIF corresponds to the HDMI output, but it doesn't have a level bar (maybe that's normal?).I found a section in the wiki regarding my problem, but it doesn (HowTos)

Default sound output in Gnome 3 46 weeks 17 hours ago

I have two different sound devices for output: "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" for headphones "High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI)" for speakers

For example: if I open a music player and start a song, it plays out fine from speakers. But when I try to control volume it controls "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" instead of HDMI.

Hi

I have a ATI Radeon 5450 graphics card and it is connected to the monitor using a VGA cable. It is also connected to an external LCD tv using HDMI cable. When I play a movie in Totem player in the monitor, it plays fine. If I change audio>settings>output to Manhattan HDMI Audio to direct the output to the HDMI cable, the video in Totem player plays at double the original speed!

I am working on setting up an HTPC running Ubuntu 12.10. I have been searching for hours for a solution to get 5.1 surround sound working through HDMI, to no avail. I do not know a lot about audio standards or how they are managed in Linux.

I use my laptop with an external monitor which has speakers. When the monitor is attached through HDMI I can switch (using the GUI: Sound Setting --> Hardware) between the normal laptop audio output and the monitor output.

Sound - no HDMI output 22 weeks 21 hours ago

Sound problem, no HDMI output Hi all,

Ubuntu 12.04 desktop 64bit ASUS mobo M5A97R2.0 audio Realtek ALC887

I have been struggling more than a week unable solving the sound problem via HDMI output.

On sound setting -> Output HDMI/DisplayPort disappears on "Play sound through"

I have another HD on this PC running Fedora 17 desktop 64bit. There is no problem on sound output via HDMI.

hmmm. so I plugged in a TV with an HDMI cable and got video! awesome! but oh no, there's no sound! This is from a laptop with an ATI Radeon card built in. Analog audio works and plays out from the laptop's speakers. But selecting the HDMI card doesn't play audio out the TV speakers. I know the hardware is good, because it works in Ubuntu, and so linux can do it.
