Hi, I have recently bought a Intel Compute Stick and I am having trouble with the audio. Intel provides a custom Ubuntu release that support audio, but I want to run the linux distribution of my choice on it (openSUSE 13.2 for the moment).
In order to have HDMI audio support it is necessary to compile a kernel with this patch (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/01org/baytrailaudio/master/hdmi_audio_2015...) provided by Intel for kernel 3.16.7 (https://01.org/ubuntu-hdmi)
I compiled the openSUSE kernel using the default openSUSE .config plus the following: CONFIG_SUPPORT_HDMI=y CONFIG_SND_SOC=m CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_SST=m CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_BYT_RT5640_MACH=m
I booted the new kernel and aplay -l gives this output: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: IntelHDMI [IntelHDMI], device 0: IntelHDMI [IntelHDMI] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
but when I run: aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav the audio plays for .2 seconds and then nothing more. Sometime it will play later a little bit more and stop again. At some point these messages appears: underrun!!! (at least 29325.946 ms long) underrun!!! (at least 1535.889 ms long) underrun!!! (at least 3196.213 ms long)
I have looked around on google for a hint on how to fix this issue but I found nothing. Any idea where to look for a solution?
Attached there are the dmesg and lsmod output for ubuntu with the working audio and openSUSE 13.2 plus patch without the working audio. I can provide any other information you need.
There are enough messages that make me believe something is very wrong from the start

Some of us at Intel are trying to clean this up but it'll take time.
