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.

  • MacBook Pro Retina 13' late 2013: built-in keyboard and Multi-Touch trackpad may become unresponsive after HDMI unplug

    At my desk I usually plug 2 external monitor (one via HDMI, one via Display port) and an external APPLE USB keyboard and BT touchpad.
    Most of the time I unplug the HDMI cable the built-in keyboard and touchpad stop working.
    This is very annoying issue because I have to force a shutdown to fix that.
    Only sometimes it got fixed by plugging back the HDMI cable.
    I already patched with MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update v1.3 and Issue persists.
    Is there anyone else with the same issue?
    Any idea on how to fix it?

  • Audio cuts out (mDP - HDMI) when entering clamshell mode

    Hi - my MBA is late 2012 (8 GB, 2 GHz i7, 10.7.4). When I hook it up to the LED TV (a Toshiba 40L2200U) using a Folsom miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable (no separate adaptors, it's a 6' cable with mDP at one end and hdmi at the other) it works fine - audio is transmitted and it comes through the TV speakers. But when I close the lid and try to continue watching with the laptop in clamshell mode (a magic trackpad is around that is paired to it), video continues just fine but the audio cuts out.
    Annoyingly, when I open the lid back up the audio still doesn't work. I have to futz around a while before it comes back (restart any programs with audio output, unplug the cable and plug it back in again, move the audio output in system preferences to core audio and back again to the TV etc.)
    Does anyone know what's up with this? I don't think it can be the cable's fault--clearly it's able to transmit audio along with the video, and nothing changes about the cable when I close the lid.
    Could anyone with a similar setup (MBA/Lion -> TV via HDMI adaptor) let me know if you are able to enter clamshell mode without losing audio over hdmi?

    In 'alsamixer' I have a setting called ''Headphone Jack Sense' which if enabled mutes the speaker when a headphone jack is inserted.
    What's the output of

  • Audio lost after unplugging headphones

    After the 9.1.A.0.490 update, I sometimes experience loss of audio after unpluging my headphones. It's really bugging me that I miss calls because of this.

    My phone has 4.1.2 JB, build number: 9.1.A.0.490
    It happens after pulling the headphone connector from phone - sometimes, not always - for example 1 case from 6... When this happens, the phone speaker will not make sound (incoming message, calendar notification, music player) until:- incoming callor- reconnecting and disconnecting headphonesor- restart phoneThis is my observation - my current opinion is that sometimes after disconnecting headphones phone thinks it is still connected to - so maybe hardware problem...

  • Optical Audio Problems

    Hi guys,
    I'm having a little trouble getting my Mac mini to play audio via optical out through my Sony HT-IS100 home theatre system.
    Below is my correspondence with Sony UK so far listing the problem and current connections. Their reply indicates that the problem is the way the sound is output from the mini. Does anybody know what the default output audio type is via optical?
    It is worth noting the problem occurs through iTunes, front row, safari, quick time etc.
    I also tried using my MacBook Pro and the same problem occurred. Does anyone have any ideas, or are Macs just not compatible with my setup via optical audio?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jib
    Here is the link to the manual referenced by Sony http://www.superfi.co.uk/extras/Sony/sonyhtis100manual.pdf
    =================================================
    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble getting the sound from my MacMini to output through my recently purchased HT-IS100 system.
    The MacMini is being connected via a TOS optical cable for the sound and a HDMI cable for the picture to the SAT inputs on the HT-IS100.
    The picture is working fine, as mentioned the audio is not. The HT-IS100 is working fine for all other inputs.
    The optical cable has been checked and is working when used for other components, as has the optical out port on the MacMini.
    When the HT-IS100 is turned on from standby, the OPT and PCM light are on and I get audio for about a second before '2.0 channel' is displayed and the audio disappears.
    Have looked through all trouble shooting and online guides and nothing to help me with it. I also tried calling my local sony centre with no luck there either. All components are working so am assuming it is just a setting that needs to be changed.
    Can you please advise on how to fix the problem.
    Many thanks.
    Dear Mr ------
    Thank you for your recent e-mail received on 11/03/2010 03.20 PM.
    I am pleased to read that you are the owner of a HT-IS100, but sorry to learn of the issue you are experiencing.
    Having investigated your enquiry, it appears that your MacMini is outputting a sound signal that is not supported by the HT-IS100. For example, the maximum PCM input for the Home Theatre System is 96khz. The Home Theatre System will automatically select the best decoding mode for the sound that is being received, so it would not be a setting on the Theatre System that needs to be changed. As this is the case, I would suggest that you view the supported sound specifications in the instruction manual and ensure that your MacMini is outputting a supported signal. Please refer to page 76 of the manual for the specifications.
    I hope this information is of some assistance. Thank you for your enquiry.
    Yours sincerely

    Just to update this in case anyone can still help, or if anyone searches a similar topic.
    Latest reply from Sony
    Dear Mr.....
    Thank you for your reply.
    If the SAT optical port works when connected to another product, this still indicates that it is an issue somewhere in the Mac settings causing the problem. It is possible that interference in the HDMI cable is causing the Home Theatre System to listen to sound coming from the HDMI port rather than the optical port. I would suggest that you try connecting the Mac just with optical and no HDMI, to see if the issue still occurs. If the problem is resolved, I would recommend that you use another HDMI cable.
    If the same issue occurs, this indicates that is a Mac setting somewhere causing the sound output to be incompatible. In this case, I would recommend that you contact Mac for assistance.
    I hope this information is of some assistance. Thank you for your enquiry.

    So, with HDMI unplugged the audio works through the optical input to the HT-IS100 amp. With a HDMI (all cables working that I tried) plugged in, the picture comes through but no audio for that channel.
    So there must be something outputting through the HDMI from the mac mini to make the amp try to take the audio from there instead of the optical. Tried all TV output settings on the mac and same problem across the board. Does anyone know if there is anything else I can try, or is it time to just accept this combo does not work as it should?
    Since the last post, I discovered that the sliders in the midi setup should be grey due to control being shifted to the amp, so all OK there.
    Thanks in advance if anyone has any help.

  • No audio from ATV3

    Hi everyone
    All of a sudden I've lost audio from my ATV3. I've tried all the solution that I can find; restarting, restoring, unplug hdmi, unplug power, Dolby digital settings, audio output settings, sound effect settings and tv resolution settings and nothing has worked for me! I have no audio when airplaying from MacBook Pro/iPhone/iPad all of which have worked previously.
    Any suggestions? It's hooked up by HDMI straight into the TV and when I restored it it updated to 5.3 (6105).
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Does this only happen when using AirPlay.

  • Mouse/audio playback freezing

    Hi -
    I have a 3.33 6-core Westmere Mac Pro that I purchased about 2 months ago. (8 gigs OWC RAM, all others factory spec)
    I use it as the main computer in my studio. It is mainly just a Pro Tools computer (PT9, latest hardware drivers) with a few extra things installed, like third party plugins (soundtoys, LA Scoring, Superior Drummer, etc.)
    That being said, it has worked perfectly until tonight. When I move the mouse, it will be moving smoothly, then every 1.5 - 2 seconds, it will freeze for an instant, and then begin moving again. If there is any audio playing, the audio will freeze as well. I'm sure these are symptoms of a bigger issue, as I have tried multiple mice (bluetooth and wired) and it still happens.
    I have done the following to troubleshoot -
    unplugged all devices and restarted
    tried multiple mice (Magic Mouse and wired Logitech)
    selected different audio drivers
    unplugged monitors (i run 2 Dell 24"s at once)
    repaired permissions
    repaired all of my hard drives (system, tracking, and sample drives)
    run hardware diagnostics (everything came back green)
    adjusted system audio latency
    and many other things. I cannot get this problem to stop. It has been going on now for a few hours and it is so annoying that I can't get any work done.
    If anyone can shed any light on this, that would be much appreciated as I am under the gun with work and if I can't get this fixed soon I'm screwed. Thanks.

    Sometimes it is like going to the doctor, ordering some tests, and seeing what the results are, AND ruling out some under lying issues as well (no malignant tumors found). Ever watch "House"?
    Which is why clone + DW is a good place to start.
    Rewriting the Finder would be great, but it has so many bugs, patches, and is huge.
    USB has always been an issue with Macs and OS X, all you can do there is try to use and buy good cables, as sometimes even those short 'extenders' Apple includes can actually be the cause of trouble.
    The number of times that bad/marginal RAM has been at the heart of trouble is also surprising, but very real, and not at all obvious.
    So do it, see what that does. Disk Utility I have said 1,000 times, is not as robust and "no error found" can be meaningless in the end. Same for AHT, it may find a problem and report an error, but there are things with hardware it does not.
    The same tutorials apply regardless.
    My reasoning, yrs of using and maintaining systems going back 4 decades.
    Why is space curved and light bends? They still can't account for dark matter and what black holes really are.
    I found a bad SATA cable, or a bad port, maybe causing a short, trying to narrow down a system freeze on one system.
    Sometimes diagnose and troubleshoot means that even a "genius" will resort to "well, let's try this video card that we are sure is good" (and hope that trying it doesn't fry it). Same with swapping out a set of RAM sometimes. Or running Memtest for 24 hrs.

  • Issue with Audio

    Here is my issue:
    I am an editing a video clip from my summer vacation and I added music to it along with the voices of my friends and I. Anyway, Song A works completely fine, I can hear it and it works...when it gets to Song B, it works at first then starts freaking out and makes popping noises from the speakers (this is not part of the song, the song plays find in the preview, not in the timeline). After the popping noise happens in Song B, all my audio for my entire laptop is screwed up and requires me to plug in head phones, turn on audio, then unplug the headphones while the audio is still on. This fixes it until Song B plays again...
    Any help here? This is also the newest version of Final Cut Pro (with Final Cut Studio).

    That means you got lucky on the others.
    It does not mean they will keep working either.
    Problems like the one you just experienced could very well happen again until you read the manual and heed the wisdom therein.

  • Invalid Format after updating iOS

    I just updated my ATV 2 to the latest version of iOS an now my Plasma says "invalid format" whenever i start the ATV 2. No video, no audio.
    Unplugging didn't work exactly. I can see the apple symbol at start-up but then the "invalid format" sign from the TV shows again.
    Can anybody help?
    Cheers!

    So you disconnected everything and resotred through iTunes? Hmm, I updated mine and it's working fine. Maybe it is the TV? Maybe try calling support or taking it in and have them check.

  • My AirPort Express now drops out almost every night.

    The green light remains on as though all is fine, but it completely loses wi-fi signal.
    It goes from a full bar perfect wi-fi signal (which it's had for over a year) to zero bars of wi-fi instantly - and then it remains off.
    This has been confirmed wtih multiple computers.
    About 20% of the time it will come back on by itself after about 10 minutes.
    The other 80% of the time, I have to crawl over my television and audio system, unplug the AE and allow it to restart.
    This is starting to become maddening. It appears the device itself is defective.
    I have installed the latest updates.
    G5 Tower Mac OS X (10.4.6)

    Hi StephenBhm,

     Hello,
     I disabled my onboard audio, and unplugged the jaud1 connector to use an external usb audio. Now I want to return to using the onbaord audio again. I plugin to the front panel green jack, but am getting no sound... here's my troubleshooting so far.
    Enabled onboard audio in bios
    re-enabled high definition audio controller in system devices
    re-installed realtek high definition audio drivers
    configured audio software to play sounds..
    am I missing something in my hardare connections that would enable me to hear sounds? Is there a jumper that needs to be configured?

  • IPhone stuck in Headset mode

    Id like to report a bug. The iPhone will still think the head set is plugged in (internal ear piece/mic does not function) when I do the following:
    1. Use the phone with the head set
    2. let the phone lock itself after not using it
    3. remove the head set AFTER the phone has locked
    Solution:
    Right now the solution is to unlock the phone, reconnect the headset and then unplug it. You can confirm if it is working because the "lock/unlock" sound will come through the phone speakers instead of the headset.
    I have had this issue intermittently throughout my ownership of the iphone.
    Apple PLEASE make sure the phone knows when the headset is disconnected. This has interrupted MANY of my phone calls for both business and pleasure.
    Anyone else having this issue?

    iPhone locked in headset only mode
    Cause: removing a headset while phone playing and locked.
    Major symptom: no sound from earhole speaker.
    Solution: (fastest) play a song from iPod or any lengthy duration audio clip and allow phone to completely lock. Insert iPhone compatible headset jack. Unlock phone. Stop audio. Unplug jack.
    Resetting does not work.
    Often I have my phone plugged into some speakers at work through an adapter. I grab my phone to run to lunch and forget to unlock first. Now its useless as a phone.
    Workaround until you can get back to a headset: speakerphone will still work, but you will not be able to hear other things (youtube, iPod, etc)
    Other way to diagnose problem: when you change the volume on iPod or video clip using the buttons on the side of the phone (not the screen slider bar) the dialog box will say headset.
    At first I thought I broke the phone by pushing the jack in too hard, and was relieved to find out it was a fairly simple glitch. I don't think it is going to be easy for apple to fix though. It is pretty annoying.

  • P7N Diamond not booting

    My system has stopped booting or is only partly booting. It use to flash the lights on the keyboard, light up the green light by the power switch on the case and then the monitor would come out of standby and show the BIOS screen. While it was doing this the fans, pump, and drives would also start.  Now it's just the fans, pump, and drives that are powered on. All of the "on board" lights are also lit up. I've removed all USB and audio connectors, unpluged the floppy drive and card reader and it didn't help.
    It's about a year old, but the last month it started not booting and I would power it off and back on and it would work. Now that doesn't work any more.
    System Specs: CPU: Core 2 Quad 2.5GHz
                                 BIOS 1.4
                         RAM: 4GB OCZ PC2 8500 Reaper
                         PSU: OCZ Xtream 1000w
                       Video: 2 MSI 8800GTX SLI
                        HDD: 4 WD 320GB in RAID 0+1
                         DVD: Samsung LightScibe
                 Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    I'm convinced now, that it's the motherboard. I have it out on the table and have replaced the CPU, PSU, memory, and vid card with ones I know work. It did start once and I got it to go into BIOS set up,but I couldn't get the time set because the clock was in overdrive. Hours were clicking off as fast as minuets.  In the short time I messed with it, the date/time had advanced from noon on Mar.19Th to 6AM, Mar.20. I loaded the fail safe option, rebooted and it never came back on, just the same old fans and leds come on but no video. I also tried an old (16mb) PCI video card and that didn't work either. The leds by the PCI slots do light up showing that they are functioning.
     So unless someone knows some abra cadabra words to fix it, I'll consider it dead.
    Motherboards don't normally appear dead - boot - then die again.
    Since you said:

    I think it has gotten worse, now the case switch and "on Board" button will only start it once in awhile.
    It makes me think the PSU has gone faulty.

  • I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV.  I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt.  Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings.  Help!  Any suggestions?

    I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV.  Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt.  Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings.  Help!  Any suggestions?

    Hello again Parker -
    The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor.  To that I added the Apple TV.  The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor. 
    [I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
    So now I have:
         HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
         HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
         HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
         RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
    In addition I have some backup connections:
         S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
         S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
    Wait - JUST FOUND IT! 
    By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links.  The video moved but the audio didn't.  Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver.  So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
    So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio!  Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed.  It stopped.  Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
    This is becoming a career!  Any suggestions?
    Will
