Linux 3.2 sound plays through HDMI and laptop speakers simultaneously

As topic says, laptop speakers is not muted when activating sound through HDMI. Downgrading to 3.1 solves the problem. The laptop is an Asus UL30a.

Are you using Alsa or PulseAudio to configure your audio settings? The Arch Wiki has extensive tips for both. You might need to set a default audio output

I am using Pulse Audio (and KDE). It's all correctly setup, it has been working for several months and it works if I downgrade kernel to 3.1, so it's a regression with the new kernel. Also, if any mods are reading this, maybe thread should be moved since 3.2 is out of testing.
Edit: It's quite weird. If I go to KDE sound settings and change them around a couple of times, after a while it works like it should. There is no consistency in this and I have no idea how to troubleshoot
Edit2: Could this be related? I know it's for Nvidia cards, but in the first comment he mentions hda_intel.chttps://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42567 I should probably have mentioned in the first post that my laptop is all Intel:

I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously

I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously.
I seem to be able to select one or the other, but not both ? !
Thanks

No. You can only use one sound output:
Why can't I select HDMI audio on my Mac mini?
If you connect an HDMI display or television to a Mac mini (Mid 2010 or later), you might not be able to select the HDMI audio device (in System Preferences > Sound > Output). This can happen if you also have headphones plugged in to the computer. Unplug the headphones to be able to select HDMI audio.

I am trying to detect signal peaks (derivatives of the peaks both +ve and -ve peaks). simultaneously 2 peaks detectors are running, 1 for +ve and other for -ve peaks.

i am trying to detect signal peaks (derivatives of the peaks both +ve and -ve peaks). simultaneously 2 peaks detectors are running, 1 for +ve and other for -ve peaks. when a peaks get detected it would trigger a pulse of approx 1 sec duration and at the same time it would disable the other peak detector for 1 sec time duration. after the time period, again both the peak detectors would be enabled. i have been able to detect both peaks but still not able to control the detectors block the way mentioned before.
the code and the data are attached.

I'm not suggesting any of this as a model, and your needs are different than mine.
1) Go to Preferences -> Audio. Under "Default Audio Tracks", Set "Mono Media: Mono". Set "Stereo Media: Mono" (Choices from the pull-down for both are Use File, Mono, Stereo, 5.1, Adaptive)
You can change these, but I don't. I am using both mono and stereo tracks. I set up a custom sequence with the particular combination of stereo and mono tracks I want.
2) Set audio for clips by selecting all clips and going to Modify Clip -> Audio Channels Tab. Under "Number of Audio Tracks" there should be a "1". Under Channel Format it should read "Stereo".
I am not sending the audio to anyone else to edit further. I am doing a final stereo mix. If camera one is set up to record 2 mikes as a stereo track, then I leave that unchanged and put it onto a stereo track. If camera two is set up to record one mike onto channel 1 as ambient sound and channel 2 is a mono feed from a sound board, then I modify those clips as Preset Mono, 2 audio tracks, Channel format Mono, and that puts the left source channel (or whichever I choose) onto Audio track 1, channel 1 (of one), and right source channel onto audio track 2, channel 1.
4) Delete all the existing audio tracks in the sequence and replace them all with mono tracks, so all tracks in the sequence are mono.
I modify the tracks while creating the sequence, and ultimately use a custom sequence.
Under my Effects Controls panel there is only Channel Volume, and nowhere to adjust the pan.
I'm using the mixer, not the effects control panel.

How do I output Apple TV audio from HDMI and Airplay simultaneously

Is there a way to output Apple TV (2nd Gen.) audio from the HDMI port and Airplay simultaneously? There is no "Multiple Speaker" setting in the "AirPlay setup on the Apple TV.

Not possible.

Can I push audio out the Apple TV HDMI and optical output simultaneously?

I am trying to put audio to two different amplifiers 1) Surround sound and 2) stereo audio. Using HDMI connection to surround sound amp and trying to simultaneously use optical for audio to second stereo amplifier. NOt getting it to work and thinking the Apple TV box only drives one at a time. DOes anyone out there know?

It does both, I have OA to sound bar and HDMI to tv and get audio on both no problem. It is something on your set up. I think from your post both work but not at the same time? If you give a little detail it will help, but ATV does both audio outputs simultaneously and independently.

Airplay mirroring and airplay speakers

I would like to set up airplay mirroring so that audio gets directed to my airplay speakers and the images to the TV.
LIke this:
iPhone-->ATV-->Airplay speakers
I can airplay audio through the phone directly to the speakers, and I can also select speakers on the ATV and airplay audio from ATV apps directly to those speakers.. I can also airplay audio only from the iPhone through the ATV to the speakers, as long as I'm not mirroring.
However when I turn on mirroring, the audio always goes right to the TV and not to the speakers. I was told that what I'm trying do cannot be done with Mirroring. Is this right? Has anyone got this setup to work?
Would be nice if I can stream shows from a browser to the ATV and then audio to the Airplay speakers. So far I have not been able to get that to work.
Help or advice appreciated, thanks!
Sam

For what it's worth, I managed a workaround with VLC and Airfoil to mirror a video to Apple TV and send the audio to AirPlay speakers. However, there's still the 2 second delay issue for most other sources, like Chrome and games.
It seems what's missing is a way on the Apple TV to redirect the audio to an AirPlay source while mirroring (holding down select does nothing in this mode, unlike Netflix or Movies where it brings up a source selection menu). It would be SO COOL if this was implemented in a future ATV update - for all of us with projectors out there.

L channel sound comes through both L and R speakers after installing IDT High Definition Audio Codec

I noticed a sound problem on my laptop. The R channel works as expected but the L channel is split between the L and R speakers. After checking several different possibilities I narrowed the problem down to the IDT High Definition Audio Codec that I downloaded from the HP driver support page for my notebook model and operating system.
I uninstalled the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and restarted. This forced Windows to resort to using its generic "HD Audio Device" default. When I did this the sound was equally split between the L and R speakers as I would expect - L channel 100% though L speaker, R channel 100% though R speaker. I then re-downloaded the IDT High Definition Audio Codec from HP (sp59654.exe), re-installed it, and restarted. Immediately the sound problem was back - while the R channel comes 100% though the R speaker, the L channel is split between L and R speakers.
Please note this has nothing to do with adjusting speaker "balance". Both L and R channel volumes were set to 100% while investigating this problem. It's definitely some sort of incompatibilty between the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and Windows 8 64-bit or the sound hardware in the HP Envy DV6.
Here are my details:
IDT High Definition Audio Codec
Publisher: IDT
Date: 8/19/2012
Version: 6.10.6425.0
Notebook
HP Envy DV6-7200
Windows 8 64-bit

Here is what I would recommend you trying. Go to device manager and uninstall the audio driver. Once it is uninstalled, go to the device manager toolbar and select "Scan for hardware changes". After it completes, reboot the computer. Once the computer is rebooted, test the audio and let me know if that helped.

Does Apple TV output audio via both HDMI and Toslink at the same time?

I would like to know if Apple TV outputs audio via both the HDMI and Toslink ports AT THE SAME TIME...
Ideally, I want to use it in my main zone connected to my TV via HDMI and convert the Toslink signal to analog to be exported to Zone 2 on my receivers. (My receiver - as do most - can only direct analog sources to Zones 2, 3, and 4)

Hey Bob,
I have this same issue. I was wondering what model of toslink to analog adapter you went with and how well it works?
Thanks!

Multipe airplay streaming on ATV3 and Airplay Speakers

Hello i want to Mirroring my Mac with ATV3 and stream the music via Airplay on two Airplay speakers.
what options are there? I have already tested AirParrot here it goes but with a strong echo and interruptions .

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do it from iTunes, it works a charm.

Can't find the option to switch between MacBook speakers and Airplay speakers in iTunes 11.

In iTunes 10, the button to switch speakers was in the bottom right corner, now I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know where it is, or if for some reason they removed this feature?!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Go to the top right and turn on the iTunes miniplayer. Finally, you'll see AirPlay icon on it

HT4587 Is it possible to use AirPort Express and wired speakers simultaneously?

While playing music via AirPort Express for AirPlay and iTunes can I additionally play the same music through a speaker wired directly (through the 3.5mm jack) from my iMac?

Ok so the answer is in itunes help all the time! I was directed to - Itunes Help - Listen and Watch - Choose Speakers. Thanks to the guys at Western Computers Cirencester for their help. All now setup.

HDCP, HDMI, and Airplay

I am considering purchasing an Apple TV, but I'm not sure if my TV supports HDCP over its HDMI connection. Assuming that it doesn't support it, how will my Apple TV experience be changed? My main concerns are as follows:
1. Will I be able to play purchased or rented HD tv shows or rented HD movies? What about SD tv shows and movies?
2. Will I be able to stream HD TV/movies, SD TV/movies, and digital copies from bluray purchases over home sharing?
3. Will I be able to do iPad 2 AirPlay mirroring? Will video apps like Netflix and ABC player work?
4. Will I be able to AirPlay movies from my iPad/iPhone to the apple tv?
Thanks for all the help.

From what I have found, Apple TV cannont send ANY video to a non HCDP device. I've tried it using the Blackmagic card and it will not accept any video input, even videos I captured myself. According to the Blackmagic site, it is a hardware issue and has nothing to do with the video content. Here is what their faq said:
"HDCP content protection is hardware based encryption, and so it can be present on a device even if you are using content that you have the rights to capture."

Send both Toast and Tile Notification simultaneously using Template feature of Notification Hub

Hi, I am using WNS(Windows Notification Service) With Notification Hub to send Push Notifications to my WP 8.1 Application. I am basically sending localized notification using Template feature of Notification Hub. I have used Localized
News example reference for sending localized used.
Here are my templates and how I am registering them, also How my Dictionary payloads look like :-
Toast Template Method :-
public static string GetToastText01Template(string param,string line1)
return string.Format(@"<toast launch=""$({0})"">
<visual>
<binding template=""ToastText01"">
<text id=""1"">$({1})</text>
</binding>
</visual>
</toast>", param, line1);
Tile Template Method :-
public static string CreateSquare150_150BackgroundTextTemplateWns(string backText)
return string.Format(@"<tile>
<visual >
<binding template=""TileSquarePeekImageAndText01"">
<image id=""1"" src=""ms-appx:///ApplicationIcon_173_173.png"" alt=""alt text"" />
<text id=""1"">$({0})</text>
</binding>
</visual>
</tile>", backText);
Registration With Notificaiton Hub (Part of Register Method basically) :-
var toasttemplate = GetToastText01Template("NavigateToPageUri" ,GetToastCultureKey(culture));
await _hubClient.CreateWindowsTemplateRegistrationAsync(ChannelUri, toasttemplate, tags);
var tileTemplate = ToastFactory.CreateSquare150_150BackgroundTextTemplateWns(GetTileBackTextCultureKey(culture));
await _hubClient.CreateWindowsTemplateRegistrationAsync(ChannelUri, tileTemplate, tags)
Toast payload In terms of Dictionary :-
Tile Payload Dictionary :-
Note :- I have ensured that Keys for both the templates must be different during registering the templates so that both templates doesn't mix with each other.
Problem :- When I am registering only one Template, doesn't matter Whether it is Toast or Tile, I am able to get the notification on my app successfully(Both of Toast and Tile ,individually, working fine). But When I register both of the
Templates simultaneously or Individually, then none on them is working.
Questions :-
1) Can you let me know how basically Notification Hub select the Template from Payload Dictionary ? Like in case of two different registered templates.
2) How can we send Two localized Notifications simultaneously using Template feature of Notification Hub?

Hi Tanuj,
Selection of template/registration always based on tags not based on payload keys.
Just to explain, you have following two devices.
device A - toast template, tags: {"en-us", "toast"}
device A - tile template , tags : {"en-us", "tile"}
device B - toast template, tags: {"en-fr", "toast"}
device B - tile template , tags : {"en-fr", "tile"}
If you call a method SendTemplateNotificationAsync({“properties of template”}, “en-us”)) like this, That will target the toast and tile both notifications to the device A.
But if you just want to send the toast notification to device A, you have to call something like this,
SendTemplateNotificationAsync({“properties of template”}, “en-us && toast”)). FYI Second parameter is a tag expression: Please refer following link to know more about tag expressions:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn530749.aspx
To answer your second question, register template with language tag along with other tags (just like above example). Then when you are sending notification, include that tag in your tag expression.
Example: SendTemplateNotificationAsync({“properties of template”}, “en-us && toast”)), this one send toast notifications to all “en-us” local devices.
Thanks,
Sateesh
