First, THANK YOU for addressing this! However, I have a couple questions. Which solution was implemented; a true/false switch controlling the behavior between the old _working_ method, or the new ELD restricted one? Or, this module parameter thing that was mentioned?
As a user having to deal with the frustration of this problem, I absolutely think the true/false switch is the best solution as it's set-and-forget. Set it one time, get the behavior you _want_, and not have to bother with it again. With the module parameter thing, it sounds like you have to change module parameters according to what you want at the moment. Or is it that the true/false switch is controlled by a module param? Maybe I've misinterpreted it but it's not very clear.
Yes, it is a true/false switch controlled by a module parameter.
So I grab alsa git, but how do I use the fix to restore the old behavior?
Set the module parameter static_hdmi_pcm of snd-hda-codec-hdmi to 1.
For example, by adding this into /etc/modprobe.conf: options snd-hda-codec-hdmi static_hdmi_pcm=1
