Hello,
I have been trying to get audio through hdmi to work for some time now. I have cloned the sound-2.6 repository to get the latest drivers, which should support hdmi, AFAIK.
Motherboard is Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H, with nforce 630i and realtek alc889a.
aplay lists the hdmi device:
aplay -L
default:CARD=NVidia HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog Default Audio Device front:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog Front speakers surround40:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog 4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers surround41:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog 4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround50:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog 5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers surround51:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog 5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround71:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Analog 7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers iec958:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, ALC885 Digital IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia HDMI Audio Output null Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
but,
aplay -D hdmi test.wav
aplay: main:583: audio open error: No such file or directory
fails when trying to open /dev/snd/pcmC0D3p
only the following devices exists: /dev/snd/seq /dev/snd/controlC0 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p /dev/snd/pcmC0D1c /dev/snd/pcmC0D1p /dev/snd/pcmC0D2c /dev/snd/timer
I am using alsa-lib and alsa-utils 1.0.17 .
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks.
