[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
There is still the issue here with no HDMI output with 13.10 after a new install. I am now having the issue on a different MB with onboard audio. This would make three different systems now with this issue and one being a high end laptop with HDMI. Please do not tell me that my system could not have worked with the chipset that is in my system as mentioned many times above. The HDMI output worked with no issues before 13.10 release. I had more HDMI options to select from in the Sound and Pulseaudio config settings for stereo and surround sound. Now it is very limited to what can be used. S/PDIF is even limited in reference to the surround sound options. Mainly, there is only various Analog options referencing surround sound. Please take my word for this. I would not have spent all this time between two bug reports if I did not see an issue here from a once fully functioning system. This would have been a total waste of my time and anyone involved with these reports. With the release of 13.10 the audio issues have gotten worse since some developers decided to remove support for older chipsets which now has crippled quite a few of the once working older HTPCs. Why remove support for older systems forcing the end user to have to replace a once working system? If it is due to removing drivers to cut down the size/bloat of the newer releases then at least give a simple option to add the older drivers and code back in for the older systems. My many installs of 13.10 have been tweaked, edited and re-edited lines of code, added and removed config files, install and reinstall of 13.10 multiple times due to all the changes being tried that eventually caused the audio to completely fail and lastly, information about patches without explanation on how to apply these patches. It has been over three months since the release of 13.10 and yet no resolution to this issue. The release of 13.10 has been a disaster in reference to the audio portion of its release. Still no one can understand here that the regular user of these distros using this archaic method of audio control is not going to understand any of what has transpired over these past three months. The end user needs something as simple as other operating systems such as Mac and forgive me, Windows to set up their audio. The end user should not have to spend hours trying to configure the audio which then leads to total frustration. This type of situation such as I have endured would force any regular user to just go back to a different OS and then end up complaining how complicated Ubuntu or other distros are. Maybe a developer or advanced user of these distros containing Alsa and Pulseaudio can understand these issues but the end user, the plug`n play end user is just getting left with these various audio issues leading to a once working and expensive HTPC. How much longer is this going to go on before someone decides to place a few people on this issue and redevelop the audio portion as one single package for Ubuntu and Linux in general? Please stop waisting time with tweaks and patches and look into a single, more user friendly and productive audio package. Maybe develop a one package replacement that can be easly be installed into Ubuntu 13.10 and the latest distros using 13.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
Well that test was a bust. No difference with the audio. Same as I posted in #51. Answer to pulseaudio only set nonaudio bit in the above patch , the other possible way is when pulseaudio using a52 plugin which set nonaudio bit I searched the net and all I could find is the URL I posted in #52, and that was not for 13.10 but I thought I would give it a go. In reference to did pulseaudio allow you to select those mapping using a52 ? I don't think I have ever seen a52 in either ALSA or Pulseaudio selections. Remember Raymond I am a hardware person. So doing a patch, I do not have any idea how to do so unless it is spelled out in steps for me. All the things I did in #52 I probably knocked my ALSA back a few years in version or just loaded up th edrive with a bunch of worthless old files.

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
I just tried something different here with my system. I turned off the Onkyo receiver which routed the HDMI directly to my TV. I tried all sorts of settings within ALSA and Pulseaudio to hear the sound on my TV. Nothing passes through from the media players except this speaker-test -d -c 2 -t wav -Dhw:0,3 With this I get the audio pass through of Left and Right audio from t wav but as usual mapped wrong as Right / Left. In addition, the speaker test within the Sound panel does not pass the audio either from HDMI. So this above test may point to the issue. I am now pretty sure it is not my hardware MCP67 audio chip-set here either. Why I state this, I tried a completely new computer with HDMI output and still the same issues. My neighbor was gracious enough to let me experiment with his laptop. The test subject was a new HP ENVY Laptop, Intel 2.4GHz i7 core, 8GB ram, 1TB drive, Intel HD graphics and HDMI out. We set the laptop up as a dual boot with Ubuntu 13.10 64Bit with all the latest updates. This is a major issue which I now know it is not an issue with my system but with Ubuntu 13.10; ALSA, Pulseaudio,the Kernel or all three. Now is this ALSA, Pulseaudio or a Kernel bug? Apparently Takashi Iwai does not think it is a kernel issue. I am going to C/P this to the Kernel Bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
Well Raymond that was short lived. I had a feeling that posting this issue in the Kernel bug area was going to go nowhere. I think what needs to be done is try to pull some ALSA devs and some Pulseaudio devs into this issue. One minute it looks as if it is a ALSA issue then the next a Pulseaudio issue. This is why I feel that there should be only one audio package running within any distro. I can't think of any OS that I have dealt with in the past years that has to use two packages to produce one audio stream. I tried to bring David into this , but apparently he is busy with something or considered this a non audio issue as how others have been treating it for the past few years. I gather from the posts up in the kernel bug that the audio is not supposed to work the way it has been working here before 13.10, that does not make a bit of sense. If I did not have 13.10 all tweaked out and runing nice and smooth, I would just can 13.10 and go back to 12.04.x LTS or wait until 14.04 is released I am just totally baffled here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello Raymond, No I haven't filled there. I will today. So apparently that is the issue then not having he pin hdmi Just as I said, if it is not broken, don't fix it. :) Just for curiosity; the audio packages ALSA and Pulseaudio, are they developed under one group or are they both seperate? If it is one group, to me it looks like a major lack of communications. If it is Alsa on the left and Pulseaudio on the right, we need them both in the center channel (pun intended); Mr. Shuttleworth / Canonical should throw them both out and put a team together with a Audio Engineer, a team of developers that understands the end user. Once and for all after all these years of this distro, develop one working audio package that everyone can benefit from and stop crushing the user in the middle of this mess. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
Hello again Raymond and whoever is following this report, I replaced the HDA-Intel.conf with the above(see #45). My results are the same. Audio-test -c 6 -t wav results in audio out via the HDMI, stereo only. Left-Right reversed and Left-Right Rear, Center and LFE barely audible. Audio test videos can be obtained at http://www.dolby.com/us/en/consumer/technology/home-theater/dolby-digital-plus-download.html I have also been using some test DVDs I purchased while working in the production studios. The DVD set is called Video Essentials NTSC test dvds by JKP. Running a test using XBMC settings as follows: Top selection: Audio Output -- HDMI Speaker Configuation -- 5.1 Lower Section: Audio Output Device -- HDA NVidia, HDMI Passthrough Device -- HDA Nvidia, HDMI These settings result in only digital data in the audio output (Buzz or Hiss). Top section (as above) Lower Section: Audio Output Device -- HDA Nvidia, ALC888 Digital S/PDIF Passthrough Device -- HDA Nvidia,ALC888 Digital S/PDIF These settings result in decoded audio playback of 5.1 surround sound using these encoded test videos. Video: 1920x1080 H.264 @ 24 fps (all test videos) Test video #1: Audio Codec: E-AC-3 (ATSC A/52B) Channels: Surround 5.1 Sample Rate: 48000 Hz Bitrate 640 kbps Test video #2: Audio Codec: DolbyTrueHD Channels: Surround 7.1 Sample Rate: 48000 Bitrate N/A Using the surround sound test video channelcheck-large.mp4 or channelcheck-small.mp4. File with extention .m2ts produces digital noise output in VLC. VLC media player version 2.0.9 Twoflower settings: HDA Nvidia, HDMI 0 Audio out selected produces only 5.1 downmixed to stereo. There is no option for surround sound with this selection. The 5.1 downmix to stereo is also not properly a mapped L-R it is reversed as R-L. All HDMI 0 selections available to play through HDMI is only Stereo, there are no 5.1 surround sound options under Audio Channels dropdown or Audio Device dropdown except analog. HDA Nvidia, ALC888 Digital IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output only produces Stereo only. Using the Audio Selection of: Playback/recording Through Pulseaudio Sound Server, produces audio out receiver selected input S/PDIF or HDMI with Pulseaudio selections (IEC958) or (HDMI) in Stereo only. Summery of my findings with both ALSA and Pulseaudio, with the above HDA-Intel.conf and even the original script are as follows: 1. The original script was limited to selections for audio output. An additional output that I have noticed was the Playback/recording Through Pulseaudio sound server, something I have never noticed before. 2. All output selections only produce Stereo output. There is no selection for 5.1surround either S/PDIF, IEC958 or HDMI. There is only Analog 5.1 and above available. Earlier releases of Ubuntu before 13.10 had options for 5.1surround S/PDIF, IEC958 or HDMI in the Audio Output selection and Audio Channels of VLC. I have not tested with earlier versions of VLC. 3. When testing under XBMC version Frodo 12.2, I have full Digital 5.1 surround sound via S/PDIF receiver selection. When selecting direct HDMI on the receiver, not HDMI-auto which will default to S/PDIF, some of the video's audio track did not play through HDMI or if an encoded 5.1 track were to play the audio there is only digital buzz or hiss. 4. Here is something to look at. Why is XBMC producing 5.1 surround sound via S/PDIF when VLC or other media players do not? Most all experienced users of XBMC state; turn off or completely remove Pulseaudio. I feel that it is not Pulseaudio and or ALSA that is thes issues since there is no 5.1surround in the standard media players and there is 5.1 surround in XBMC but only via S/PDIF. 5. Lastly, then I am done here with this since there is no discussion on a once and for all fix not patches for this. As I have stated before more then once, I feel that it is about time to have the developers get away from two packages for audio. Also, get out of the possible mindset of if it is not broke, then don't fix it As a Broadcast Engineer, I have found that sometimes it may be easier to work with what you have and just keep patching. In this case it is broke, now it is time to fix it once and for all. Scrap these two troublesome packages and develop something new. One Package not another combine this or patch that combination. Make the package as an option in a update or a stand alone option to install. Lets say one is developed, the user installs it via a package handler or via the terminal, it uninstalls ALSA and Pulse from the system then installs the new audio package.. I know that this is easier said then done, but this issue has gone on for years. So lets start on something and table any fixes or patches for what is there now so there is time for new development. What most have forgotten here is that the everyday user; not someone like me that can grasp most of the infomation above, is not

Hello again Raymond, Remember I am a hardware type engineer and not a programmer/coder. I feel that I am not just the average user. I would not know where or how to apply these patches. I am a cut and paste sort of programmer. As for coding, HTML and some PHP. As I mentioned in #37 I have reinstalled 13.10 due to all the changes that I made things were getting to the point of not having any audio output at all. The audio is still broken, but It is at least outputting via HDMI even if it is only stereo. In this fresh install, HDMI is available, but only in stereo and not 5.1 surround. Also even with the HDMI now showing in both ALSA and Pulseaudio, the audio output is mainly via command line testing and still not recognized properly by any audio or video packages (ie: VLC or XBMC) in Ubuntu 13.10. I have also posted this issue on the XBMC.org website and most all state to remove/purge Pulseaudio from Ubuntu and also remove libasound2. I did not have the issues as stated above with older versions of Ubuntu and removing Pulseaudio and libasound2 will break many packages that require it that are not referencing XBMC. At this time I do not have the proper HDMI output, if any it is stereo. In XBMC where 5.1 seemed to always work for me, that is now also broken and when switched to HDMI output for 5.1 all I get the digital data flowing through the audio out or mostly nothing at all unless I switch to S/PDIF for stereo. Before I forget, I also noticed if I select analog there is stereo audio output even though there is no analog input. I greatly appreciate all the help that you and David have given me and also thanks to your colleagues that may have worked with you behind the scenes. Due to a couple of audio and video editing projects I have to get done, I have to move on so I can get them finished soon. I will still be available to run any tests that you feel that may fix this situation once and for all. For the little I understand about Linux, this would be a total nightmare for the typical user to have to endure. This type of issue would probably push almost any user to abandon this distro and or Linux completely. The conflicts and failures between ALSA and Pulseaudio has been an ongoing audio situation within the Linux distros dating back to 2007 maybe even further. Now with the release of Ubuntu 13.10 the audio complaints are already mounting for this version and HDMI is almost unusable in most cases. There are too many old, stale and not properly used work-arounds for this and other audio issue posted all over the Internet and it should be time that it is remedied once and for all. What I have concluded here is that this may not be a fully broken issue, but a issue that can be due to both a software and hardware issue. The sad issue is that most of the manufactures ignore Linux and the developers are stuck with experimenting with driver development. What makes it worse in my case is that it now seems to be an intermittent issue, almost as in a hardware issue that when a component heats up, the circuit fails. In this case too much data and the audio packages fail to handle it. My thoughts for the Devs; would be to keep after this HDMI including the 5.1 surround sound issues and possibly down the line, hopefully soon, completely scrap ALSA and Pulseaudio and start a new. Maybe between the developers of both packages, they sit down together and maybe using the code of both packages, they come up with a one piece audio package. A package that includes all the features and plug-ins to make a smooth, functioning and system wide user friendly audio package. As I stated somewhere in my ramblings I mentioned the use of Ubuntu in home entertainment, well the gaming industry are now making a push for Linux as their main operating system for their games, these audio issues will be disastrous for any distro of Linux if these issues are still prevalent through the various distros. I am still available for testing if needed, but I will have to add another Ubuntu partition to test on. Thank you again for enduring all my long drawn out details and hopefully my information will help in fixing this issue once and for all.

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
Hi, I decided to reinstall 13.10 as a new install again after trying just an overwrite saving files and folders etc. etc. I came to the conclusion that the .conf files and probably the libraries were a mess after all this testing and changing of the files, thus the new install. The HDMI is working in ALSA and Pulseaudio and works for a short time then stops as it did the last new install. I quickly ran some tests running {speaker-test -c 2 -t wav}. By switching between the HDMI and the S/PDIF via the Sound panel while the receiver was in the HDMI auto mode, (auto mode in either HDMI or S/PDIF on the receiver will automatically switch to what ever input is receiving a signal) I was able to see the display on the receiver changing with either selection. What I have found was the usual, the HDMI has the audio inverted (Right - Left) and S/PDIF has the proper mapping (Left - Right). Running a 5.1 surround sound test {speaker-test -c 6 -t wav} yielded the the same inverted mapping for front Left - Right via the HDMI output and the S/PDIF yielded the proper mapping. The only difference with 5.1 is that Front Center is not from the center speaker but what sounded like a spacial mix to center which was via the Front Left-Right speakers. As for the Rear speakers, there was no audio out. The audio is roughly 4-6 dB lower and from the front speakers. As for the Sub,LFE; there was nothing. To get these results I had to log out or reboot the system to reset the HDMI a few times. I have read about this issue in some forums, restarting or relogging. I have tried XBMC and the stereo or 5.1 audio plays for a while and then stops. Also pausing, stopping or starting the video will result in a loss of HDMI audio. Restarting XBMC also does not recover the audio. The information that was sent via apport- collect was done just before the HDMI audio quit again. I have ran some tests here on my receiver to see if it had any issues with my other equipment when the HDMI audio failed on the computer, all is working fine via S/PDIF and HDMI on the receiver. I also placed a second distro on the system now. It is latest Linux Mint 32bit. I ran some audio tests there and all is working fine. I hope all this information will help you both determine what can be causing the issue so a fix/patch can be available to the user with this HDMI issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Judging from the logs, alsainfos etc, I'd say we can nail down this bug to somewhere in alsa-lib, if this is working: speaker-test -D plughw:NVidia,3 -c 2 -t wav And this is not working: speaker-test -D hdmi:NVidia -c 2 -t wav As a temporary workaround, you can edit /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer /profile-sets/extra-hdmi.conf and replace every hdmi:%f with hw:%f,3 and see if that helps. (Restart pulseaudio for changes to take effect, e g by rebooting your computer.) But this does not explain your error pcm.c: Unknown PCM hdmi:0. Is it possible that either of the files /usr/share/alsa/pcm/hdmi.conf or /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf have become corrupted? To restore them to the original I believe sudo apt-get install libasound2-data --reinstall would do the trick. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Nice to meet you here David and thank you for your interest in this issue. speaker-test -D plughw:NVidia,3 -c 2 -t wav This test is working through the HDMI ( unplugged optical S/PDIF to make sure) Left and Right is reversed but that is the least of my worries. speaker-test -D hdmi:NVidia -c 2 -t wav Yields this error: speaker-test 1.0.27.1 Playback device is hdmi:NVidia Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels WAV file(s) ALSA lib pcm.c:2239:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM hdmi:NVidia Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory I replaced all eight instances of hdmi:%f with hdmi:%f,3 . Pulseaudio has not been starting at boot since the alsa update I did, which apparently did not update after going through the motions. I will have to manually stat with -D for now until I get that fixed. And the plot thickens...

I am wondering Raymond if it would be advantageous to bring in someone from the ASLA and PulseAudio group; if there is such a group, to get involved at some point in this issue?

It looks to me that this is a ongoing issue for many years between the two packages and Ubuntu being stuck in the middle of this.

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
I think this is what you are looking for. I am attaching two files one is without Pulse and the other is with pulse. Why I have two different logs is that Pulse does not start without me running pulseaudio -D. After it starts I only have analog stereo and surround now. This started after the ALSA upgrade. Apparently the version did not upgrade since the information in the earlier info log and the latest have the same information. I wonder why ALSA did not upgrade? Also, I have noticed that index 16 is not in the new info log. And this is after I added the two index 16 lines. I have placed the changes in both locations to be sure. I also have noticed that there are two HDA-Intel.conf files in two seperate locations. I am not sure if this is normal or not. ~$ locate HDA-Intel.conf /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf /usr/src/alsa/alsa-lib-1.0.16/src/conf/cards/HDA-Intel.conf Could there be a possibility there are other duplicate .conf files for ALSA and Pulseaudio that could be conflicting with each other? If so what other files should I look for.

[Bug 1249705] Re: HDMI output not available in 13.10
Hello Raymond, I am not 100% sure that the TX-SR606 passed EDID to the controller. I would imagine so since I had full HDMI digital 5.1 outputs before with no issues with previous versions of Ubuntu including Susse. I rarely used S/PDIF. I will say though, since the fresh installation of Ubuntu 13.10 I have had nothing but audio issues. I have had others tell me to go back to a previous working version, but that is not going to resolve anything for other users that may have the same issues. I will hang in here and work with whomever needs any input from me until this is resolved, documented and patched. Today I determined via one of the tests that there is an output on the HDMI but only on that one specific test, and it was only stereo with reversed Left and Right audio mapping. That may be a small plus in this situation. In addition, I had full HDMI output surround sound in XBMC Frodo 12.x. Now I only have S/PDIF stereo and no working HDMI options. When viewing a AC3 or other 5.1 encoded video there is no audio. As for MCP73, I have never noticed that info until now, probably due to not running some of these tests which is yielding all this output data. I also had another thought here. If anyone wants to do some remote digging in this system, I am available fulltime until the 14th of November. After that I will be only available evenings US EST. I already have Team Viewer installed on this system for when I need to do remote support here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

XBMC only gives an HDMI but I/O is only S/PDIF or analog and stereo. Is there anyway possible to completely remove or purge all audio AlSA and PulseAudio and do a fresh install of both? I know of purging Pulse but not ALSA / ALSA-Base. ** Attachment added: pulseverbose.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+attachment/3906066/+files/pulseverbose.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you Ramond for the follow up on this matter. I was not sure if that is the steps you wanted me to try per the post here and email. I looked for both conf files. hdmi-output-0.conf was not in my system and iec958-stereo-output.conf was an empty .conf file. I added the missing hdmi and edited the empty iec958 with the contents and rebooted the system and there was still no HDMI out. After testing I removed the added missing file, hdmi and commented out the two lines at the bottom of ie958 As for hdmi-output-0.conf, there are three simular files numbered 1, 2, and 3 but no starting file 0. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249705 Title: HDMI output not available in 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1249705/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
