It will be the weekend before I have a chance to test it against a HDMI
receiver though.   

I'll let you know how I go.

I grabbed the sound-2.6 tree.  If I successfully build it, will it
generate a complete
kernel which I need to install and boot? or can it generate modules for
my existing
kernel?  My apologies for the dumb questions.
