Kyle Echols, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest
development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains,
could you please run the following command in the development release
from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will
automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this
report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel 
available (not the daily folder) following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream 
kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this 
bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

** Description changed:

- I have an XFX Geforce 8200 (MCP78) motherboard. While HDMI video out works 
fine, HDMI audio doesn't work with the 3.8 kernel (3.8.0-29 or 3.8.0-34), I've 
tried with both the nouveau and nvidia binary drivers.  The analog outputs work 
with either driver.  
- After upgrading to kernel  3.11.10-031110-generic, from the kernel mainline 
PPA, and using the nouveau drivers I'm able to get audio out over HDMI, using 
the following options in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:

Title:
  HDMI Audio out fails on Geforce 8200 (MCP78)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have an XFX Geforce 8200 (MCP78) motherboard. While HDMI video out
  works fine, HDMI audio doesn't work with the 3.8 kernel (3.8.0-29 or

  The analog outputs work with either driver.

  WORKAROUND: After upgrading to kernel 3.11.10-031110-generic, from the kernel 
mainline PPA, and using the nouveau drivers I'm able to get audio out over 
HDMI, using the following options in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:
  options snd-hda-intel single_cmd=1 probe_mask=-1,0x8 unmute iec958

  While using this configuration, I have audio and it's mostly stable,
