Audio is not working on HDMI out put

hi
when i connect my laptopm to a tv through an HDMI cable the audiio is not transfering to the tv's speakers.
i have tried to check the settings but there is no option of making the HDMI output as the default playback device...
there used to be such an option but now i can no more find such an option.
i do remember getting a troubleshoot message that the HDMI audio driver is causing problems and that it has to be disabled...but now i cannot find where to enable that driver from
please help me solve my problem
thanx

Open Control Panel > Sound
Right Click on " HDMI Output" and you will find an option which says - "Set as Default Device" . Kindly ensure this is selected and once you do this there would be a green checkmark on option - "HDMI Output"
Here is how it looks. On your laptop it might look different but the below picture is just for your reference. By chance, if you do not see "HDMI Output" option, Right click on white area in same window and you would get 2 options - Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices, Please ensure both options are selected.

(Pulse)Audio? not working (Intel HDMI)

Hi,
so I installed Arch Linux again and have problems with the sound. I think there is a problem with PulseAudio, as test sounds from settings (cinnamon) and using 'aplay -D plughw:0,7 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' work. But when I open music/videos in VLC, Firefox or Clementine, there is no sound, nor are system sounds output.
I tried using headphones and everything works just fine.
I've been searching for a while now and found nothing that could help me. I can't figure out, what's wrong.
Previously I used an AMD graphics card and had no problems with sound and HDMI. Also I can't remember doing something special when I installed and used Arch back then. Now I use the HD3000 graphics included in my Intel Core i7-2600k. I need HDMI because I use an A/V-receiver.
Thank you in advance

There is already a default sink set under ~/.config/pulse, content: "alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.hdmi-surround-extra1". Don't know what to do with that. I thought it was set by pavucontrol and should be right?
speaker-test -c 2 -t wav -D plug:dmix:"{CARD 0 DEV 7}"
works (while pulseaudio is killed, right!?) in multiple instances, fuser gives
$ fuser -v /dev/snd/*
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/pcmC0D7p: iuno 3431 F...m speaker-test
iuno 3486 F...m speaker-test
iuno 3491 F...m speaker-test
/dev/snd/timer: iuno 3431 f.... speaker-test
iuno 3486 f.... speaker-test
iuno 3491 f.... speaker-test
I see no problem there?
I don't really know what you mean with the linked post. But I think a summary might be useful, as I really messed up writing in this thread.
When pulseaudio is killed:
Like mentioned above, speaker-test works with C0D7
VLC with Preferences - Audio - Output module set to 'Alsa audio output', Device set to 'HDA Intel PCH, HDMI 0 Audio Output' works
Clementine with GStreamer Audio Engine - Output plugin set to 'Audio sink (ALSA)' does not work
While trying with ALSA-only I found this out:
$ fuser -v /dev/snd/*
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/controlC0: iuno 652 F.... firefox
iuno 4167 F.... vlc
iuno 4259 F.... clementine
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: iuno 652 F...m firefox
iuno 4259 F...m clementine
/dev/snd/pcmC0D7p: iuno 4167 F...m vlc
/dev/snd/timer: iuno 652 f.... firefox
iuno 4259 f.... clementine
Concluding Clementine and Firefox use the wrong device. I guess c0d0 may be the default device for alsa? But for pulseaudio it shouldn't matter, right?
Choosing 'HDA Intel PCH, ALC893 Analog Output' as device in VLC results in no sound, obviously, and 'C0D0' in fuser.
However, trying to play back compressed audio with VLC, alsa-only, everything like above does not work. fuser shows the same (C0D7), vlc shows no error playing back .m4a or .mp3 files but it stays quiet.
.oga (vorbis) files I found in /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop do work, though. While VLC is playing, I can't run speaker-test (error: -16,Device or resource busy)
When PulseAudio comes in , some things change, obviously
I'd like to name two states. State 1 meanns sound is working, state 2 means sound is not working. State 1 is default.
First of all, no matter what I do, fuser always gives
$ fuser -v /dev/snd/*
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/controlC0: iuno 5552 F.... pulseaudio
/dev/snd/pcmC0D7p: iuno 5552 F...m pulseaudio
Forcing VLC to use 'Alsa audio output'-module, and 'HDA Intel PCH, HDMI 0 Audio Output' as device results in device or resource busy error.
Setting device to 'PulseAudio Sound Server' or 'Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server)' both work. The 'Module' setting in preferences does not matter. I could either choose ALSA or Pulse with the same effect*. Long story short, audio output works, still not with compressed audio files. This means the state switches to state 2, as long as I keep the .wav file running! -> clementine and firefox also could play back sound, vlc can now also play back compressed audio - as long as I keep at least one of them running. When all sound output is paused, I fall back to state 1. Only playing back a .wav file in VLC or (p)aplay could save me back to state 2. I have to start other apps immediately, when in state 1 as pausing playback instantly causes a fallback to state 1. Opening pavucontrol, while in state 2 keeps me in state 2 as long as pavucontrol stays open. I used this as a dirty workaround for the last days.
State changes are also blocked the other way round. While in state 1, trying to play sound from clementine or opening pavucontrol results as staying in state 1, also when I play a .wav file with vlc.
Sorry that was much text, but I hope it's clearer now
*correction: This setting needs a restart of vlc to take effect. When the 'Module' is set to ALSA, pavucontrol lists 'ALSA plug-in [vlc]: ALSA Playback', when set to pulseaudio, the entry is called 'VLC media player: audio stream'. Same for clementine, when I change from ALSA to pulseaudio in the settings. Firefox always uses ALSA. However, it does not have effect on the state-thing. I still need to enter state 2 with the methods mentioned above

Flash audio does not work on HDMI

Hi, I'm trying to make HDMI audio work. So far I've been able to make almost everything work, but Flash is still giving me headaches. I cannot make it play on HDMI, when I open a video on youtube sound comes out from my laptop's speakers. I googled around but I didn't find any useful hint on how to configure Flash audio on HDMI. My system is a Vaio VGN-SR21M laptop with HD3470 and Catalyst 11.8.
Can anyone please help me? Thanks.

OK, as usual I found the answer right after opening this thread...
According to post #6 here:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions … rd-809773/
Flash outputs only on default alsa device, so if I want HDMI output I have to set my HDMI card as default by putting this in ~/.asoundrc:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 1
device 3
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 1
device 3
(where card 1 device 3 stands for my HDMI audio card as given by aplay -l) and restart alsa by typing sudo /etc/rc.d/alsa force-restart.
The annoying thing is that now Flash sound will work ONLY on HDMI, so when I disconnect my TV I have to delete or modify .asoundrc, restart alsa and so on... Really there's not a smarter way to tell Flash where to send sound?

SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio: mic not working with digital out

I don't know if it is a design problem or a software problem, but with the digital output enabled, I cannot get the front panel mic input to work. Does anyone know the answer to this?

does anyone know since what version this has changed? Seem like the design is going backwards

Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

If you use an HDMI cable, the audiostream will be integrated, so there will be sound when using an HDMI cable!
Not necessarily. That only works as stated if you have one of the most recent MBP's that has a built-in HDMI port.
If the MBP only has a Thunderbolt or miniDisplayPort, you need an appropriate adapter cable and even if you use an HDMI adapter or cable to connect to your HDTV there is no guarantee it will carry audio. You have to determine if your specific MBP model supports audio out through its miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output, and whether the adapter does likewise.

My audio does not work on my pavilion dv4. i just bought this laptop a few days ago. what's going on

my audio does not work on my pavilion dv4

This worked for me.
Hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command. Enter ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Log out/in
If it works, delete the .plist on your desktop.
If the same, return the .plist to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.4. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

X-Fi Audio - Subwoofer NOT working in Vista 32-bit Ultimate!

<X-Fi Audio - Subwoofer NOT working in Vista 32-bit Ultimate!I I have WIndows Vista 32-bit Ultimate and Sound Blaster X-Fi Audio installed and with the factory drivers (I tried another set earlier and they did not work, so I reinstalled the original drivers which worked, at least partially). Until now I only listened to music using my headphones, but I tried today to plug-in my 5. Genius system (50W RMS) and everything works fine EXCEPT the subwoofer does not produce any sound at all!! The ONLY way to make it work is go to Control Panel -> Sound -> Speakers -> press Configure and then click the Test button in the dialog that appears (or click the subwoofer icon to make it produce a very nice bass sound - which I absolutely love, but it's the only way to make my subwoofer work!!!). Please guys, help me find out what the problem is. All help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you my friend,I have done as you have mentioned (made sure the DLL did not stay there when I rebooted before I installed your version), and now I have the version which you have built. However, I am still unable to hear the subwoofer I am so sad... even my default on-board card supports the 5. just great, and I love the sound of that, but I was hoping for something better from Creative - instead, all I got was a soundcard I can only use with my headphones at the moment because of a faulty driver...
Did you enable Bass Redirection?
Run Console Launcher, click on Speakers and Headphone -> choose 5. Speakers.
Then click on Bass (Bass Management) and enable Bass Redirection.

Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!

Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!
I verified my DV device is working fine with Premier Pro CS6.
Anybody ever get this to work?

Stan,
First, the two audio/video output preferences in Encore CS4 and CS6 have different looks, as seen in the images below.
But both are going out through DV/Firewire. Premiere Pro CS6 has the same look and settings as Encore CS6 and the Preview goes out to the monitor.
CS4 -first image and CS6 -second image.

My audio does not work...

My audio does not work. it says it's enabled, the troubleshooting tools i've used (several) find no problems, and yes, I have the latest drivers. When I start Windows Media Player, it says:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."
If I click Start, Control Panel, Sound... nothing happens. nothing. No error message, no window starts. Could it be my audio card failed?

Ok, it takes 3+ days to back up 400+GB of data, wipe Windows, reinstall all my software and restore all my data. All that drama is not worth repairing a sound card. Besides, we need to fix this for real, not duplicate the conditions that caused it to fail in the first place. In the future, it's best not to bring up that option at all. (We both know that rarely solves the issue permanently.)
I'd simply replace this so-so HP before I put myself in a position to lose 3 days of work.
However, I am still interested in finding a solution to this problem. Do you think HP is capable of solving this? If so, I'll look for a more detailed model number when I get home.
Thanks,
Gary

"not enough space on out put media"

i have been using dvd studio pro and it worked flawlessly until now. i have been getting "not enough space on out put media" on the log. im using a 15" mbp and a recently acquired 20" imac. can anyone help me out?

It sounds as though you are trying to put too much video onto your DVDs.
If this is the case you will have to lower the bitrate at which it is encoded.

I am using chat-r wireless and facetime is not working but when i put rogers fido or any other carrier sim in it work. Anyone know what the problem?

I'm guessing it's a compatibility problem similar to that that T-Mobile in the US has. I'm not familiar with chat-r wireless, but I'm guessing it's not a supported carrier for the iPhone. If they can't tell you how to fix it, I'm guessing it's just plain not going to work.
