Raymond,

Monday I concentrated on trying to make any progress on getting HDMI to output 
sound
from my video card without losing the first 1 or 2 seconds of it. This is what 
I tried:

ALSA: Position fix quirking - No Effect

Pulseaudio: turned off timer scheduling - No Effect
                      commented out module load for suspend on idle - No Effect
                      installed pavucontrol and tried changing setting etc - No 
Effect

General: Completely removed Wine and install fglrx-updates - No Effect

I've done all I can except kernel driver patching and I just can't get the HDMI 
audio
on the video card to stop dropping the first 1 to 2 seconds of audio(maybe PCI 
bus
latency or something ?).  This happens with the "System Ready" sound and in the 
desktop and even playing sounds using aplay in the terminal.

Do I need to raise a bug on this HDMI Latency problem ?.

I also ran into a problem when disabling and then re-enabling the onboard sound.
It appears that the default device is correct but the "System Ready" sound is 
still
being output on the previous device(e,g, if I disable onboard sound in the BIOS 
to
force output to HDMI it does not return to the onboard sound when the onboard
sound is re-enabled and is still outputting on the HMDI device despite that the
"default" device is the onboard sound and no longer the video card). 

Do I need to raise a bug on this as well ?.

While debugging I also noticed that the fglrx-updates does not have the fields 
for
audio like the open source driver does. I am currently using xrandr to turn the
HDMI audio off so that the onboard sound can be used by adding it to startup
applications. I still don't get the "System Ready" sound output but at least I 
get
my desktop notifications output. I will not be able to do this when the problem
with fglrx and wine is fixed(wine is already fixed, fglrx will be next year I 
hear).

I did a clean install last night and will use xrandr to disable the HDMU audio 
output
for the time being. This will only work until the fglrx/wine dependancy problem 
is fixed and I can run the proprietary driver again.

Let me know if you need any thing else. Sorry for the bad formatting (someone
should shrink the Add comment box to the wraparound size so that formatting
takes care of itself).

Once a software developer/architect always a software
developer/architect.

Thanks again
