Hi list
I have got HDMI audio out to kinda work but the sound quality is awful and not really listenable. Its very choppy and is slightly more high-pitched than it should be. This is when using hdmi:CARD=HDMI,DEV=1 @48khz outputting via ALSA 1.0.27.2 / jackd 0.124.2 under Deb Jessie amd64 with kernel 3.13.10-1. Its a System76 Gazelle Pro laptop FWIW.
This may be another manifestation of https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60769 which is still not completely fixed but has a workaround.
For me, it leads to silence, for others, it leads to underruns and screeching sounds. Please test whether appending this kernel command line option helps:
intel_iommu=on,igfx_off
