Attaching output of alsa-info.sh while running the 3.11.10 kernel (alsa- info.txt.kernel_3.11.10_20131228), I can roll back to the release kernel and re-run the script if needed.
** Tags added: apport-collected precise ** 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: 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, however, I'm unable to take advantage of 3d acceleration and HD video playback is choppy. If I then use the any of the nvidia drivers (304, 319, 331, or current) I get frequent crashes, including system lockups. I have confirmed with VLC, mplayer2, and speaker-test that no audio comes out through HDMI until the 3.11 kernel, nouveau drivers, and the modprobe options mentioned are all in place. I'm attaching 20131228_logs.zip containing the output of: aplay -lL (aplay_out) lspci -k (lspci_out) and the following additional files: dmesg dmesg.0 lsb-release uname -a returns: Linux DVR 3.11.10-031110-generic #201311291453 SMP Fri Nov 29 19:54:20 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux This is the kernel that has working audio but is unstable with the nvidia binary in use (and choppy hd playback with nouveau) + --- + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.6 + Architecture: amd64 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + InstallationMedia: Mythbuntu 12.04.3 "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20130820) + MarkForUpload: True + Package: linux (not installed) + ProcEnviron: + TERM=xterm + PATH=(custom, no user) + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + Tags: precise + Uname: Linux 3.11.10-031110-generic x86_64 + UnreportableReason: The running kernel is not an Ubuntu kernel + UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) + UserGroups: adm audio cdrom dip lpadmin mythtv plugdev sambashare sudo video ** Attachment added: "alsa-info.txt.kernel_3.11.10_20131228" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1264636/+attachment/3937052/+files/alsa-info.txt.kernel_3.11.10_20131228 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1264636 Title: HDMI Audio out fails on Geforce 8200 (MCP78) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1264636/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
