AMD 7800 HDMI audio

I have 2 AMD 7800 GPU's in Crossfire and the xf86-video-ati driver installed. I have 2 monitors connected to the 2 DVI ports and an AV Receiver connected to the HDMI port. I have Logitech 2.1 speakers attached to the MD's audio out, but if I want to play music through the receiver, I want to select the HDMI configuration from pulse. If I do, there is no sound. I am running gnome 3.6 with pulse, if that helps. I tried to follow the steps in the ati wiki, but to no avail. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

I fixed the audio using pavucontrol. My HDMI card seemed to have 2 channels with same same name:
Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7700/7800 Series] Digital Stereo (HDMI)
Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7700/7800 Series]
I wasn't able to select the second one without pavu, which somehow was the good one.

Need assistance with AMD drivers (HDMI Audio Out)

Short version:
I have an older AMD graphics card that won't work right with the open source drivers. The proprietary driver would potentially fix my problems, but it is incompatible with my current system.
Long version:
I've got this lovely old AMD Graphics card, which happens to be a Radeon HD 4250 card, and despite all of the help articles in the wiki, as well as the AMD Bar & Grill thread, I still can't get the darn thing to work properly. As of right now, I'm currently using the open-source xf86-video-ati driver. While it's a nice driver that performs well for day-to-day things, I can't seem to get the more nitpicky things working properly. One such thing, is HDMI Audio support.
Now don't go and bite my head off just yet: yes, I did read the help articles for that problem as well. I must have tried every possible fix in them, and then some. Video-out through HDMI works, at least. It's only when I try to force the audio (by adding radeon.audio=1 to GRUB) when my TV tells me it can't recognize the signal. Through all of this extensive trial-and-error, I've basically concluded that I have no other choice but to use the proprietary fglrx driver from AMD. Yay.
Sure, sounds easy enough, right? Not really...
Since my card is a bit older than the others, my only option is to use the 12.6 legacy version of the driver, which only supports Xorg version 1.12 and lower, as well as version 3.4 or lower of the Linux kernel. As most of us know, with Arch Linux being the bleeding-edge distro as it is, I currently run Xorg version 1.14 with Linux kernel 3.8. I've searched around for a possible way to downgrade both of these to the appropriate versions, but I've gotten more or less the same answer: downgrading is more trouble than it's worth.
SO.... that brings me to this:
I think I need to completely reinstall Arch Linux from the ground-up, once more. This time, however, I think I need to somehow tell it to install with older versions of both Xorg and the Linux kernel. This way, fglrx has no reason to be incompatible with my system, and I can finally quit fighting this problem and go on with my life. I'm not quite sure how to go about doing this (or if it's possible, for that matter), but that's why I'm here, and I'm definitely willing to try it in order to get this solved once and for all.
Of course, this is just my theory of how to fix this, but if anyone thinks they can help me get the open source drivers to behave properly, please, be my guest.
Either way, any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
P.S.
I wasn't sure what terminal outputs anyone may have needed for this, so if someone needs to see a particular output from the terminal, just ask.

I'm not quite sure what HDMI version the TV has. It's a Magnavox 32ME402V 32" HDTV, if it's relevant. Same goes for the laptop. It's a Pavilion dv6-3025dx laptop, but I have no ide what version of HDMI it's currently running. I'd suspect both of them are running something along the lines of 1.3 or 1.4, but I don't know. The cable is, well, a cable. I know it's a Sony brand cable, and the box advertised it for the PS3, though the box doesn't specify an HDMI version either.

No, it's not muted. When I check the HDMI device, it's set to 00 and I have no option of changing it. It's just stuck to that.

Yeah, I've tried that. It doesn't play out to the TV, but if I set the device to my laptop speakers, the sound test works (unsurprisingly).

"AMD HDMI Output -AMD High Definition Audio Device not plugged in

i have an HP Pavilion dv6-6110us laptop. i have had this laptop for less than 1 month and the sound is not working at all. I checked to make sure nothing was muted, i uninstalled the soundcard and reinstalled it on Device Manager, and still, I cannot manage to get the sound back on. the audio settings says "AMD HDMI Output -AMD High Definition Audio Device not plugged in) ..but i have no clue how to "plug it in". Help!!!?

Hey! You essentially have two sound cards, including the HDMI. First, make sure you're using the ATI graphics card, and not the Intel, when you want to use the HDMI.
Next, go to Windows Control Panel\Sound
On the playback tab (which shows by default), WHEN YOUR HDMI IS PLUGGED IN AND WORKING, you should see two playback devices: Your internal sound card/speakers, and the AMD HDMI. All you need to do is switch between the playback device you want the sound to be channelled to. You can switch this at any time. I do this when watching in the other room via my projector, or in my comp. room. Just select the HDMI sound device and choose the button on bottom-middle "Set Default". This will change the "default device" tag to below the HDMI playback device. To reset, either unplug the HDMI, or switch it here. This is always the first place you should look when you have sound issues.
Because I switch quite often, I have a shortcut link on my desktop to this sound menu, for quick switching.
If this doesn't work, make sure you have drivers for your ATI video card installed. Check you exact model and make sure your bios is up to date. They have made for switchable graphics now, which is much preferable to the previous auto-detect switch. The drivers are updated, as well. The latest HP drivers for the ATI were released in November. You can install these, then install the latest AMD/ATI Mobility Video Driver package over the top to make sure you have the latest video drivers. Either of these packages includes the HDMI audio driver, which you may not have installed.

[SOLVED] No HDMI audio

I've been using Arch Linux on my laptop for a few months and have recently decided to Arch my desktop as well. However I have no audio on my HDMI monitor, only the test-sounds (front left, front right, front center) work. I spent two days trying to fix it and I think I need your help.

defaults.ctl.card 0
or
defaults.pcm.card 1

the HDMI is indeed selected as master channel on startup, but still no audio, besides the test sounds with
aplay -D plughw:1,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Can anybody be my savior?

HDMI Audio - HDMI unplugged

Having trouble getting HDMI audio to work on ATI HD7850 (Southern Islands) Graphics card. I have enabled the audio module and running kernel :3.11.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Oct 5 21:22:51 CEST 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Using ALSA and Pulseaudio and xf86-video-ati graphics drivers.
the hdmi out is listed in aplay but no sound is output. The device is shown as unplugged in pavucontrol despite hdmi video working correctly. I have tried the wiki pages for troubleshooting unsuccessfully. i have tried every combination of card and device in aplay to test for output.
Is there a way to force hdmi to be plugged in? I believe that somehow the snd_hda_intel driver is interpreting the device as unavailable and therefore not sending the audio stream out.
Below are some relevent commands and there outputs. Thanks for any help or insights.

[solved] [radeon] HDMI audio stopped working, video too fast

I'm using the `xf86-video-ati` driver, which worked fine up until when I upgraded Arch, after some weeks of not doing so. Now the HDMI audio is silent. Also, when I set the audio to output to HDMI in the GNOME sound menu, videos are playing faster. I tried setting the `radeon.audio=1` kernel commandline, but it didn't help or even change anything.

[SOLVED] HDMI audio not functioning

I'm having trouble getting audio working. My setup is audio through HDMI, but I actually don't have a way to test audio through any other means, so I'm not sure if HDMI has anything to do with the problem.
My onboard video chipset is ATI Radeon HD 4250, and so I have added "radeon.audio=1" to my GRUB's boot entry, however nothing seemed to change. Where I seem to be stuck is that aplay will not pick up any sound devices:
$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:252: no soundcards found...
From http://lkubuntu.wordpress.com/2011/07/2 … eshooting/ I was able to yield the following:
$ lspci -nn | grep '04[80][13]'
00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [1002:4383] (rev 40)
01:05.1 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 4200 Series] [1002:970f]
From some commands in the ALSA page at the wiki:
$ lsmod | grep '^snd' | column -t
$
$ ls -l /dev/snd
ls: cannot access /dev/snd: No such file or directory
No idea why almost all of the commands I'm seeing are returning the opposite of what they should. Any ideas?

Thanks for your replies guys! Using both of your posts' information I was able to get HDMI audio working. Here's what I did:
# modprobe -v snd-hda-intel

At this point I found a post that suggested reinstalling kernel26:

XBMC: HDMI audio starts out OK, then gets distorted after few minutes

Hi,
I have posted about this on the XBMC forums, but one of the developers kindly informed me that they do not support XBMC on Arch Linux in any way, so I should take my queries elsewhere. I am hoping that someone here might be able to shed some light on my issue.
I am trying to use XBMC 13.1 (xbmc-13.1-2) with Samsung EH5300 32" Smart TV (2013 model) over HDMI connection. The HTPC computer is AMD-based (AMD A4-5300 APU, which includes Radeon HD 7480D GPU), and runs an up-to-date Arch Linux (last full system upgrade on 2014-06-26). I am using the open source "radeon" driver (xf86-video-ati-1:7.3.0-1). Everything has been great except the sound:
The sound starts out fine, but a few minutes later it begins to get distorted. At first it sounds like reverb affecting voice only, but with time the distortion increases until it sounds kind of cued TV noise. If I restart the video, the sound works again for a while. If I change options in Settings -> System -> Audio Output, like the number of channels or pass-through, the sound is again good for a little while. If I enable or disable "Stereo Upmix" or change audio stream from the "Audio - Settings" dialogue window available during video playback, it too seems to "reset" the sound to sounding normal for a while.
Has anyone seen something like this?
I have tried different videos, and it seems like HD videos are affected more than SD videos, starting with distortions only a few minutes in (except the one Xvid video, which was fine for 15 minutes). Some SD videos are completely fine, some start having distortion issues only after 20 minutes or so. Judging from video information, if the video uses 5.1 channels (all HD videos fall in this category), it definitely gets distorted; if a video only uses 2.0 channels (like the SD videos), some are fine while others get distortion later on. I have "Number of channels" in Audio Output settings set to 2.0. Changing this (or any other audio settings) has not affected the distortion.
Following Arch Wiki: Radeon note about HDMI audio, I tried adding radeon.audio=1 to the kernel line; this did not solve the issue, just added some visual glitches.
In the XBMC debug log I posted, the distortions happen at around 17:26, though there is absolutely nothing logged at that time, even though I enabled "Verbose logging of AUDIO component" in the Debugging settings. The video I was playing there showed the following in the information window: 720 H.264 dts 5.1 16:9.
Any suggestions, ideas, or experiences would be appreciated. It definitely seems to be XBMC issue, since I was able to play the same HD video through mplayer without any problems (for at least half an hour, which would have already showed distortions several times through XBMC).

Hi GDykes,
OK Imagine that Connection speed from your ISP is like an empty freeway. You can go full tilt (upto that road's speed limit)
Bandwidth is like a busy freeway where you only get to go as the bit you are in allows.
Reducing the Bandwidth in iChat or in the System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming tab is like a vehicle that has a maximum speed that is slower than the speed possible on the freeway.

AMD High Definition Audio Device Not Plugged In - h8-1070t

Seeing this message in control panel/display drivers for HDMI on my video card.
In short I will get sound occasionally out of my HDMI card which is plugged into my stereo. Randomly the sound wil cut out and I get this message: AMD High Definition Audio Device Not Plugged In
Occasionally when I restart my computer it works again, but only for a short time. I have reinstalled the drivers from AMD with no luck.
Stats below:
Model: h8-1070t
Product: LP028AV#ABA
Video Card: AMD Radeon 6850
Much appreciated for any help!

I have the same problem and have just begun looking into it. I have my Radeon 7570 hooked up to a Panasonic TV with the HDMI connection. After a reboot of the computer and turning on the TV it works, but if I change the input on the TV to something else and then come back to the HDMI input the computer is connected to, the sound is lost. The computer then reports that the AMD device is not plugged in and it switches the default to the standard speakers.
Elsewhere I've seen it reported that updated AMD drivers have corrected the problem for some, but when I used AMD's automated driver detector and downloader it complained that it couldn't identify the 7570. So HP's version of the 7570 doesn't seem to match AMD's. So it's up to HP to provide an updated video driver to correct this problem.
Let's hope they do.

Desperate needing help with HP Pavilion DV7-1450us HDMI audio output

I have tried a lot of different things to get audio output to my tv with no luck. I get video output fine. I notice when right-clicking the speaker on my taskbar there is no option to enable HDMI audio output any help is greatly appreciated as we are waiting to watch a movie <_< thanks.

Hi Sez,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your AMD Graphics Driver package as this will also reinstall the AMD HDMI Audio driver- the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
Recovery Manager - Windows Vista
After the reinstallation has completed, restart the notebook.

No Sound with Manhattan HDMI Audio

Hi All,
I have been trying to get audio working through my HDMI port on my Asus K52JT. I am trying to connect it to my LG Scarlet tv (which by the way is being detected as 32" when it is a 42"). I have no problems when i use my Win 7 Desktop to view/listen.
I have been trying a good part of my weekend to resolve this. Sorry if this has been answered somewhere else, i am feeling a bit desperate lol. I am running kernel 2.6.39 (testing) x64 wasnt working with .38 either, Gnome 3 (so pulseaudio and no catalyst). My device is detected in the Sound settings but when i Test Speakers nothing plays (the icon changes color quickly) and it doesn't play when using aplay...but no errors etc are given and it doesn't play properly. When i run it with time you can see that on the Internal Audio it plays the whole way but on the HDMI audio it doesn't...I have also followed the instructions given here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … s_Not_Work but they do not work.
Does anyone else have this problem and or workaround?
Thanks in advance

15-n211dx hdmi audio drivers

I can not get audio to play form my computer to myu tv through the HDMI. The video is coming over fine, but no audio. I believe I need to donwload new drivers for the audio, but can not find them.
Thanks,
Eric

Hi, Eric:
The AMD graphics driver should have installed the HDMI audio driver.
You may be able to get the HDMI audio to work by downloading the AMD HDMI audio driver directly from Realtek.
Accept the agreement, download and install the ATI HDMI Audio Device driver about halfway down the page.

7850 2GB Twin Frozr III HDMI Audio?

Hi,
I recently replaced my ATI 5450 512MB passive graphics card with the MSI 7850 2gb. I had hdmi audio working perfectly with the old card. However, with the new card, when I open "Playback Devices" in Sound, the ATI HDMI Audio says "not plugged in". I am using the video through HDMI and should be able to use the audio too.
I uninstalled the drivers I had on my system for the old card, and downloaded the latest drivers from the AMD website for the 7850. Has anyone else here had similar issues?
Edit: Adding system specs

Quote from: Svet on 18-October-12, 05:44:04
have you tried msi vga drivers for your card?
Yes, I originally installed the drivers straight from the AMD site. I then uninstalled them using Driver Fusion, and installed drivers from the MSI site. With both sets of drivers I get "ATI HDMI Output" set to "not plugged in".
I had this same problem with a previous ATI 5450 512mb, but managed to fix the issue with driver updates, but driver updates won't fix it this time

A88XM Gaming + R9 270x HDMI Audio Skipping/Dropping

I have been using HDMI audio out for a long time and I have NEVER run into this issue. I have just spent the last 6 hours trying to troubleshoot this issue and I am about to RMA this board and go with an Intel.
I have an MSI R9 270x and used it with an Asrock A88X board and never had an issue. I "upgraded" to the MSI A88XM Gaming motherboard and now this same video card has audio skipping and dropouts over HDMI.
I have done the following:
1. New HDMI Cable.
2. AMD Catalyst uninstall/reinstall/upgrade/rollback - pretty much everything you can possibly do to troubleshoot a driver issue. Went into safe mode to wipe drivers using DDU.
3. Finally resorted to reinstalling Windows 8.1. Did NOT fix issue.
4. Bios is up to date. Drivers are up to date. Have disabled and enabled realtek device in system properties. Nothing changes the sound issues.
I can't for the life of me figure out why I am having audio issues. Video displays perfectly fine, not a single issue. But audio keeps dropping for a split second to my surround receiver, as if the PCM audio stream gets cut. Sometimes there's what seems to be static sounds as well.
It's really annoying. Again, I have had this card for a couple of months and have been using HDMI for a long time, with my 7870 and my 6850 before that. I have never had this issue before. I do not wish to use Digital Optical because it doesn't do 5.1 PCM out to my soundsystem.
Please help me, I am about to give up on this motherboard.

Quote from: Nichrome on 27-August-14, 01:28:55
I would argue about this. Indeed they are a bit more supportive for Intel boards, but let's be fair: Intel has released quite few NEW series, whereas AMD hasn't released anything new yet (FX4-8 were around for years, and still the same socket). That is why MSI releases more BIOSes for Intel based boards, as these are more common. Just about 9 series came out, and now X99 will come out with DDR4 for Intel. Whereas for AMD I still haven't heard anything about plans of releasing boards based on DDR4. So that doesn't surprise me why they support Intel more than AMD. AMD is way behind Intel (and that's not an opinion but the fact). And surely not just MSI is more supportive for Intel, but it depends on popularity of brand's boards, because if Asus AMD boards are more popular than Intel, then obviously they will more likely support AMD based board, rather than Intel.
You don't get what I am saying here. I'm just gonna cherry pick this example:
http://www.msi.com/support/mb/A88XG45_GAMING.html#down-bios
1 Bios update since launch.
http://www.msi.com/support/mb/Z97-GAMING-7.html#down-bios
4 Bios update since launch.
Two of the top high end boards for each respective platform, both released recently. In fact, Intel is more recent. You can clearly see that they are more interested in providing post launch support for Intel vs AMD.
Go to Asus webpage, and just pick any A88X board, even the mid range ones. You can see a bunch of bios updates, same with Asrock, same with Gigabyte.
I can't honestly believe this board has been out since early march and already post launch support is dead. As a motherboard manufacturer, you don't win customers with fancy features and cool looks. You win customers based on post lauch tech support.
Check this thread:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1469169/msi-a88x-g45-gaming-fm2-goodness
People who are mid range enthusiasts ARE in fact interested in this board. But BIOS issues stagnate any interest in it, along with VRM issues.
It's a great board, and MSI has what seems to be good AMD offerings, but they need to get their BIOSes right. Proof is right there on Newegg, pull up any AMD motherboard on Newegg and for every positive review, you have a negative review on issues with BIOSes and random things just not "working", no driver updates, etc.
That's what I don't get. Why bother even releasing enthusiast directed AMD boards, and not bother supporting them after they have been launched?

HDMI audio fails speaker-test, Radeon Richland

I've just put together a new machine and installed Ubuntu 13.10 on it. The system has an integrated AMD Radeon Richland APU. The Onboard audio is working fine (tested with headphones). The HDMI audio is enabled in BIOS, and it's listed in aplay -l and in the Sound Settings dialog. But it's not making a sound, and after many tests and possible fixes, I'm at a loss what to try at this point.
Perhaps the most telling indicator about the problem is the error message I get when I run speaker-test:
