Hi,
Just reinstalled debian and are having lots of problems getting the sound
to work through HDMI. I had it working but now it has just stopped. I'm
watching the screen through the same HDMI so I presume hardware is good.

Eventually I want to use this system to run MPD.

Here's my setup as described by aplay;
james@Hawaiian:~$ aplay -L
null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
pulse
    PulseAudio Sound Server
default:CARD=Intel
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    Default Audio Device
sysdefault:CARD=Intel
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    Default Audio Device
front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    Front speakers
surround40:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers
surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers
surround51:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Analog
    7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers
iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0
    HDA Intel, ALC889A Digital
    IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output
james@Hawaiian:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC889A Analog [ALC889A Analog]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC889A Digital [ALC889A Digital]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

In my pulseaudio setup I added the first line here, and commented out the
second.
load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,1
#load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:1,0

KDE is now giving me an error about internal devices removed; both output
and capture on the pulse sound server.

I'm not sure where I'm now going with this, so if anyone could help me
debug this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
James
