Hello Raymond,
thank you for staying with me on this.
Thanks in particular for the astonishing,
one-line -- one-fact information in this e-mail from yourself.
So surprising in fact, that it is taking me
a while to appreciate the illuminatory nature and implications of our
"solution", which looks, in fact, very much like the bug that I was
trying to report in the first place, and for which your link would
appear to point the smoking finger at Alex Deuchar and Dave Airlie, as
the two men directly responsible for conceiving and implementing this
abomination.
I would dearly love a hint as to your
"tradecraft" in this. How on Earth did you know where to look?
Whilst searching around, I did come across
Bug:-
[ATI HDMI] HDMI Audio Disabled by Default (since oneiric) Edit

<https://launchpad.net/%7Evirtualspectre8> on 2011-10-02
to which I noticed your personal
contribution.
The simple (i) "Grub" Workaround was OK
for 12.04 , but not so far for 13.04 .
{( on the other machine now) where,
things seem to be getting a bit messed up. With all this re-installing,
I think I have got an actual "bug" bug with my update manager which is
"failing to resolve" depositories "Something Wicked" and giving me
"System Error -11" messages, while the last thing it tells me before it
boots the login screen is that the contents of my radeon ROM are invalid
(sic). However in the interests of keeping things as simple as may be,
I think that that one goes on the back burner until I have had a chance
to work on it.}
With Respect

Title:
[System Product Name, ATI R6xx HDMI, Digital Out, HDMI] Playback
problem (#1231730 Part 2)
Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
As the summary mentions , this is a "continuation" ofBug#1231730.
In order to collect all the neccessary diagnostics, with a
different hardware configuration:- that is with the original computer ( AMD
2-core ) actually CONNECTED via HDMI to the Sharp TV Display,this is reported
as a separate Bug.
This is information that I believe relevant to my dialogue with
my Watcher (Raymond (superquad-vortex2))
.
