Public bug reported:
This bug has been automatically assigned to the alsa-driver package
based on instruction provided in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems for creating a bug but
not sure if it is an alsa-driver issue.
This is a fresh install of 9.10 on an HP Slimline s3100e PC with a HD
Radeon 4650 card. I can get video out of HDMI with no problem but I can
not get audio out of HDMI.
aplay -L returns the following:
----------------------
hdmi:CARD=HDMI
HDA ATI HDMI, ATI HDMI
HDMI Audio Output
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
pulse
Playback/recording through the PulseAudio sound server
----------------------------------
However, I noticed in other peoples posting that first line of the the
aplay -L output normally has a DEV=0 at the end. My output does not.
Don't know if this is a problem.
aplay -l (lower case L) shows the following:
-------------------------------
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
--------------------------------
Also, alsamixer screen displays the following:
-------------------------------------------
Card: HDA ATI HDMI │
│ Chip: ATI R6xx HDMI │
│ View: [Playback] Capture All │
│ Item: IEC958 │
│ │

│ ┌──┐ │

│ └──┘ │
│ │
│ < IEC958 > │
------------------------------------------------------
As you can see it is unmuted however, i can not increase the volume
here. It stays at 00.
Some other posting I have seen is creating a file called /etc/asound.conf and
added the following lines:
pcm.!default hdmi:HDMI
pcm.iec958 hdmi:HDMI
Tried it (even rebooted) and it didn't work.
And yet another solution was to created a file called
/etc/modprobe.d/hda_intel.conf and add the following line:
options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1
This also did not work (even after reboot).
I'm seriously at a loss here and do not know what else to do. I'm fairly new
to linux (disclaimer).
I have not downloaded any of the proprietary drivers for this card.
I would prefer to stay away from that but if it's the only option then I would
give it a go.
