The upstream 3.13 kernel is currently under development. The radeon.audio=1 kernel boot option will no longer be necessary with this kernel. Instead, HDMI audio on ATI/AMD Radeon cards can be enabled and disabled on the fly by typing the following in a terminal window:
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio on or xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio off If your HDMI port is numbered differently (type "xrandr" to check) - you might need to change HDMI-0 in the above command to HDMI-1 or HDMI-2. The 3.13-rc2 kernel is currently available at http://kernel.ubuntu.com /~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and instructions on how to install and uninstall it are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1062874 Title: [Satellite A300, ATI R6xx HDMI, Digital Out, HDMI] No sound at all Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The audio output doesn't work.
