Hdmi sound works with TV, not receiver (works fine in windows/ubuntu)

Hi everyone,
I've been pulling my hair out for about 8 hours now, finally decided to post. I have my htpc connected to a new pioneer sc-65 receiver and cannot get any sound working via hdmi at all. To make sure it wasn't a hardware problem i've tested with both ubuntu 12.10 and windows 7, both work just fine out of the box. My arch setup also works fine when plugged directly into the TV via hdmi, just not to the receiver (ubuntu/windows work fine with the receiver).
speaker-test -D plughw:0,3 -c 2
and
aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
play fine to the tv, nothing on the receiver, no errors either way, just no sound.
Output of aplay -l
aplay -l

I've tried every combination of power cycling the devices, power cycling receiver while playing back audio, etc. I was running just ALSA and decided to install pulseaudio out of desperation, still no luck. Hardware is i3-2120T on intel DH61AG motherboard. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply sad clown, i haven't really been able to figure out the cause. Optical audio does not work either, even with an external sound card, so it must be some type of configuration problem, but i'll probably never figure it out. I'm back to using onboard analog audio which just sucks...I always end up with the strangest unsolvable problems that no one else ever seems to have lol.

Recently, I can't get any sound from my game applications. Sound works fine with video, streaming, etc, but not my game applications. I've tried powering down and re-booting, but the sound does not return. Can anyone help me?

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

[SOLVED]No sound under linux, works fine under Windows

Hello everyone. This is a completely new issue, and I've not had to deal with figuring out audio on linux before, so I was hoping that someone can help me try to resolve this issue, and I can learn more about my system in the process.
Up until a few days ago, my audio was working perfectly fine on Arch. Nothing changed, that I can remember, that might be the cause of the audio suddenly stopping.
alsamixer shows that all volume is turned up, I've turned up the volume on my speakers, and pulseaudio pavucontrol shows that sound is being played, and it shows that the correct sound card is selected. Still, no sound. It doesn't work with headphones either.
If, in pavucontrol, I change the playback device to my HDMI out, sound comes out properly thought that.
When I dualboot into Windows, all sound works fine, headphones and speakers.
What might I need to look in to here? What information would help you to help me figure out what's going on?
Thank you in advance for your help and your patience.
[SOLVE] was deleting the pulseaudio configuration and letting them be remade.

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond.
No, no sound at all will play, no matter what the application or media type.
The only thing I'd recently done was install xfce4 so that I could try to set my Keyboard's volume wheel (Logitech G510) so that it would work. It didn't work however, and I've since removed xfce4. I honestly dont' know if the sound stopped working before or after I tried this though.
dmesg doesn't show anything in particular to my untrained eye, but after rebooting, trying to play a youtube video to test the sound, and checking journalctl, I do see this:
Nov 19 00:43:42 arch pulseaudio[766]: Unable to load mixer: Invalid argument
Nov 19 00:43:47 arch pulseaudio[766]: GetManagedObjects() failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.bluez was not provided by any .service files
Also, starting audio from the terminal doesn't show anything useful.

HT4623 I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine

I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine.It is quite strange as well. Have you encountered this issue before?If yes then what's the solution?

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

Damaged DVDs won't play under OS X (works fine under Windows)

I have started to rent my DVDs online and so far for the past two weeks it has been fine. Today though I got one which was a bit scratched. I popped it in and it was detected but wouldn't play as it couldn't be read very well (well it did play but very slowly).
I gave it a clean but this still didn't work so I tested it on my Windows machine. It worked fine on there so I took out the DVD drive and connected it using my USB to IDE adapter to my Mac.
I then popped the DVD into there, and tried again. Same problem, it still reads really slowly on my Mac, but works fine on my Windows PC.
So I decided to try it in Parallels using the USB connect functionallity. Guess what, it works fine!
So from what I can tell it must be a software bug with OS X, I am running 10.4.9 and have all the latest updates installed.
Under OS X I have tried playing it with DVD Player and VLC, and also tried ripping it with Handbrake, but nothing gives good results.
Under Windows I have tried playing it with VLC and Windows Media Player 11, both of which work fine.
Any ideas?
MacBook 1.83 GHz, 1 GB Ram, 60 GB HDD Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Sorry, I will make things a bit clearer.
The Windows PC I have is a desktop PC. It works fine on there, so I took the optical drive out of there and connected it to my Mac using a USB to IDE adapter. Even when playing it from this drive (which worked fine under Windows) it still didn't work properly under OS X.
When running it through Parallels I tried it with both the Mac's internal optical drive, and via the optical drive from my Windows PC and both worked fine.
I have sent the DVD back now, so I am afraid I can't test any more solutions anybody has. In the end I just played it through Windows.
Thanks,

Firefox 14.0.1 @font-face displaying most web fonts in bold, even though it works fine on Windows FireFox, IE9, Chrome, and Safari

Have been working with a web site and half of the @font-face web fonts have turned to extreme bold only on Firefox 14.0.1 for Mac OS X, they work fine on windows versions of firefox and all of the other browsers.
My firefox updated a couple days ago, which is when I noticed the problem.

I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text - all other sounds work fine

I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text. All other sounds work and text tone is checked in settings.

I finally discovered that the problem is with a single text tone and all the rest work fine. The text tone not working is one I purchased from iTunes about 2 weeks ago and it worked fine up until 2 days ago. When the text tone is still there and it plays when I manually select it, but there is no sound when I get a text. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is or how to fix it?

No sound over HDMI, picture works fine but in sound manager tells me HDMI not connected

Hi There
I have a tm2 1050ez and am experiencing problems with my HDMI port.
When I connect it the display automatically gets duplicated and everything works fine, but when I try to play a movie with vlc for example I do not get any sound through the TV, only on the tablet.
Of course I went into the sound manager because I suspected that you must tell the tm2 where to play the sound, but to my surpise it said that the HDMI cable was not connected?
I therefore could not make any changes to the default output device...
Even in the IDT application wants to tell me that the HDMI cable is not connected. I have plugged and unplugged it several times to no avail.
I hope someone can help me on the above, I already searched the net for several hours but havn't seen a similar problem, with the most problems it does show the cable as conneted..
Thanks in advance!

Lost sound on 1st generation Apple TV using HDMI. Works fine with RCA. Any ideas about what might be wrong?

Have an old 1st gen. Apple TV that has worked fine for a long time. I suddenly lost the sound using HDMI connection. No help with a different HDMI cable. System works fine using component and RCA cables for video and audio. Does anyone in the Apple communinty have a similar experience or any thoughts. Thanks for you help in advance.

If the HDMI output on your ATV is toast, replacement is the way to go. However, if you're tried the HDMI cable to a different HDMI port on your receiver and it works there AND you're maxed out, you might try one of the splitters at the link below (at 12 bucks, an easy way to pick up a couple of HDMI ports). I'm using one of these and it works fine. It seems to sense which HDMI input is active and automatically routes that signal on to my receiver.

Cannot get sound through my surround sound tv - only pictures - sound works fine through tv speakers - why is this?

Apple TV is working for pictures and sound via my television speakers but I cannot get sound via my surround sound speakers with HDMI or an Optical Lead.
Anyone care to advise me what I may have done wrong in the connections?

If you have connected your TV by HDMI via your receiver and you get sound from your TV but not your receiver then the problem must lie within your receiver or its settings. Check the manual to ensure you have selected the correct settings for it.

Wireless not working in linux, but works fine in windows vista

Hello!
I have installed Unbreakable Enterprise Linux 4 in a dual boot config. with Window Vista on a Compaq Presario laptop. After install completed I found that my on board Broadcom Wireless Adapter (Dell 1390 Mini PC card) was not recognized. I have tried installing NDISwrapper versions 1.48 and later 1.47 (after uninstalling 1.48) because everytime I got to the "modprobe ndiswrapper" received a fatal error about an unknown symbol or parameter, and on install I also encountered a "CONFIG_4KSTACKS" error as well. The good part is the light on my laptop for the wireless adapter finally came on and the driver (bcmwl5.inf) appears to be installed and the wireless adapter identified as being present, but it still doesn't show up in the network manager gui interface. So I am out of ideas if any one can give me a suggestion for a solution I would appreciate it.
