Try using this command with all the listed devices until you hear sound from one of them.
aplay -D hw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Also, go into alsamixer, press F6 to go to the right sound card, and unmute everything by pressing M (OO means on, MM means muted). For me, I have a similar aplay -l, and for some reason, the correct device for me also hw:1,9 (no clue why there's four of them...), and things like pulse just assume it's 1,3. If you use ALSA, it should be easy to set it up in /etc/asound.conf. If you want pulse, you might have to go into /etc/pulse/default.pa and add a line like this in order for the correct card to show up, it worked for me on my GT430:
load-module module-alsa-sink device="hw:1,9" sink_name=digital_output

After 1.6.2 update, I have hd picture but no sound, tv says hdmi audio unavailable

I have hd picture but no sound, tv says hdmi audio unavailable , this happened right after update 1.6.2 my television is an HP PL4260N, I saw on other post in fixya.com other people with same problem after update too. Any ideas on fixing this? I already spent 2hrs with tech support trying to fix this and no luck, they had me use components I never had any problems before this update, is there a way to go back to 1.6.1? One more thing my standard channels work fine (video & audio)

You may need to revert to using component cables until they hammer out the issues with HDMI. Just hang on to that HDMI cable for future use when these issues are resolved. You will not see a degrade in picture quality with component cables. Only downside is the added cabling mess.

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

This is to show that alsamixer is not mute
Turn on and Off
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture#HDMI_Output_Does_Not_Work wrote:If aplay does not output any errors, but still no sound is heared, "reboot" the receiver, monitor or tv set. Since the HDMI interface executes a handshake on connection, it might have noticed before that there was no audio stream embedded, and disabled audio decoding.
yup did that, and i made sure the volume is on
Restart Alsa
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture#HDMI_Output_Does_Not_Work wrote:You can restart alsa with the example below or you may reboot, and audio should now work.
Nope unfortunately it didn't
Can someone help PLEASE.
One of the underlaying problems is that i do not understand what Pulseaudio / OSS are and what they do.
I've installed both, and i have pulseaudio server running.
Other side notes
- dbus is in rc.conf
- nVidia Driver: 280.13

just for fun....
hook the front panel stuff back up inside your computer...
Open the Realtek Audio Manager..
Click the Audio I/O tab..
just to the right of where it says Analog, there is a little blue dot...
Click it and click to disable front jack detection..
Then click the Front headphone picture on that page (make sure your headphones are plugged in)
make sure headphone is selected..
Do the same for the microphone...
then click the Mixer tab..
scroll along till you see Front Green In and Front Pink In
Make sure they aren't Muted and raise the volume level up..
If you have a microphone plugged into one of the jacks, click the tiny button to the right of the mute button to boost your mic...
Not sure if thats your problem but ..
that control panel is a nightmare...
Good luck

*** dv4-1413tx No HDMI Audio to TV

Please help.
When I plug in the HDMI cable, I only get the Video on LCD TV screen. But there is no audio sound from LCD TV speakers. The audio only output thru dv4-1413tx speakers.
I have tried changing the Default Sound to NVida HDMI audio - but still no audio. When click Test Sound, the audio bar is bumping up and down, but no audible sound from LCD TV speakers
In fact, I notice that once I plug it the HDMI cable, after a short while, the LCD TV will beam up the desktop screen, and when I click on the Sound icon at System tray, it also indicates that it has switched to NVida HDMI audio output. But there is no audio sound on LCD TV speakers. I need to change the Default Sound to notebook speakers, then I get audio sound, and it is output from the notebook, but the video on LCD TV.
I have also tried all HDMI ports of the LCD TV - only Video, NO Audio
Why? I understand that HDMI is capable of transmitting video and audio right???
Please advise how I am supposed to get HDMI audio to LCD TV speakers.......tks.

may be the connector, Give this a try, take your playbook with the hdmi adapter to the place where it was purchased ad try it on the same model. you can see if t is the adapter or tv

I'm losing HDMI audio just like 10.8.5

Is anybody else suffering with a loss of HDMI audio after display sleep? It's the same issue that was supposed to be addressed with the Mountain Lion 10.8.5 update:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306667?start=0&tstart=0
To get audio back I'm having to reboot again. I thought it had been resolved but since upgrading to 10.9 Mavericks it's back again for me.

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
i5-3570k @ 4.2Ghz
8GB Ram
256SSD
700W PSU
Gigabyte z68ap-d3 board

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

Trouble getting HDMI audio working

In gnome 3, it worked out of the box but I removed gnome and installed kde and have very little knowledge on setting up the audio. I have tried the arch wiki but it has not helped much. Any help?

Yeah, it's down for me too.
Install gstreamer0.10-good-plugins like suggested in that blurb if you already haven't, put in module-device-manager in your pulse config as given, and also build and install veromix from AUR and see what kind of options that program exposes for you.
Edit: and restart after all this, either the computer or PulseAudio.

Asrock ION330/Nvidia HDMI - No audio output

Machine was running archlinux and not been upgraded in over 6mths but HDMI audio worked fine. Decided to do a scratch build since all the changes in that time and have a nice clean system.
If it helps, this is what I install. Ssed this exact same install process for another Asrock ION330 and Acer Revo3610 (both same hardware) but neither use HDMI at all. Both VGA with either optical or analog audio. Both work with no additional config.
pacman -Sy nfs-utils screen ntp alsa-utils mlocate xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-server-utils mesa nvidia ttf-dejavu xfce4 gamin slim mythtv unrar lirc xbmc wget
Get no sound output but also zero errors on any of the following commands. I should add that the receiver does not detect any audio coming in, ie it usually identifies how many channels of audio and type it is receiving.

FWIW, I even tried changing the HDMI cable, turning the amp on before or after the PC etc. No change.

Default install, clean boot and I get this error but the info above indicates there is a sound device. Confused!

Edit: Am I correct in saying that the issue is because alsactl restore is running before the sound card?

HOW TO: HDMI Audio Output for Zotac Media Box with nVidia ION :)

I've been fighting with my recently purchased Zotac mini-PC for about 2 months now trying to get the HDMI audio output to work. I tried extensive modifications of /etc/asound.conf, different versions of ALSA, and even OSS without success. I've finally succeeded using ALSA and GNOME.
First I installed ALSA according to the Arch wiki.
Next I verified that ALSA detected my sound card(s):
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xfe9fc000 irq 28
1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
HDA NVidia at 0xfcf7c000 irq 18
Next I checked which sound card had the HDMI jack:
aplay -l

From these two commands, I concluded that I have 2 sound cards (important later on) and that my HDMI sound card was card 1 (NVidia) and that it had 4 possible devices (3,7,8, and 9). To determine which device must be used, I ran the following command for each device (for example, to test card X and device Y, use' plughw:X,Y'):
aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D plughw:1,7
Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono
I tried each device and got the best sound from device 7 (8 and 9 also worked, device 3 gave static...).
Now, since I had 2 sound cards, I needed to change the default ALSA device. My default ALSA device was card 0 (the Intel card), which wasn't plugged in, so I needed to change the default card to be card 1 (the HDMI card). After reading the ALSA FAQ, I found that modifying /usr/share/alsa.conf should work, though modifying /etc/asound.conf should have also worked. For whatever reason, I couldn't get my modifications to /etc/asound.conf to work, so I edited /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf. In the "# defaults" section I replaced the following:
defaults.ctl.card NVidia
defaults.pcm.card NVidia
defaults.pcm.device 7
I opted to use the key NVidia rather than the card number (1) since I've read in numerous places that the card index can change unexpectedly after a reboot/update. The key can be checked with cat /proc/asound/cards as shown above.
After this, I reloaded ALSA (/etc/rc.d/alsa restart) and verified that the sound worked through the default channel:
aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D default
Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono
Finally, I rebooted, chose the HDA NVidia (ALSA Mixer) option from gnome-volume-control, and loaded a movie in gnome-mplayer. I was pleased to hear crystal clear sound with functioning volume control
I Hope this helps someone else, I found it very hard to piece together how to diagnose and resolve this problem. Here are some of the resources I found useful:
Arch Wiki ALSA Page
ALSA FAQ for how to change default sound card
ALSA FAQ
XBMC Troubleshooting for ION HDMI

@sprince09 Can you hear sound through HDMI when you run aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D plughw:1,7 ?
(8 and 9 also worked, device 3 gave static...)
- what does it mean? How do you know that they are working?
What options do you have for snd_hda_intel in /etc/modprobe.d/ ? Can you play the following:
mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=1,7 file.wav
BTW, can you hear sound form video files in xine? If yes, can you post your ~/.xine/config ?

No HDMI Audio from PNY Nvidia G210 Card - Please Help [SOLVED]

***** It's now working! *****
Thanks to some of the posts on the XBMC and Ubuntu hardware forums. I picked up a lot of pointers.
When using this card with XBMC, There is no need at all for an /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf with probe masks etc. and there is no need for a /etc/asound.conf either (if you are going to just use XBMC like me for your HTPC setup)
All you need is ALSA 1.0.23 installed and at least be running kernel 2.6.34. aplay -l should reveal multiple (4) Nvidia devices as shown in my previous text further down this post, this is fine, however only 1 of these Nvidia devices will actually deliver sound to your TV via HDMI.
In XBMC, goto System Settings, Audio Settings, set device to "Custom" and enter only ONE of the following and then try and play a movie or music in XBMC... (My G210 Nvidia soundcard is card 1 as I also have onboard audio at card 0 so bear this in mind when applying this method to your setup e.g if your HDMI soundcard is card 0 then the first thing to try is plughw:0,3)
plughw:1,3
plughw:1,7
plughw:1,8
plughw:1,9
My PNY G210 card worked using a "Custom" device in XBMC of plughw:1,8
If you are not using XBMC and are using for example a Gnome desktop then you can apparently get sound working by using the text in the code box below in your /etc/asound.conf (this will ensure alsa defaults to the correct card and sub device for hdmi audio) again ensure you are using the correct card number and device number. You can validate this by testing audio as follows from the command line "speaker-test -D plughw:1,8 -r 44100" and simply work your way through the 4 devices until you find the one that works.
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type hw
card 1
device 8
Given the amount of testing and reading I have done on this, I wouldn't be surprised if this method works for any G210 Nvidia cards and HDMI audio, as the logic seems sound (if you'll pardon the pun! :-))
Hopefully someone will find this helpful.

Hi Guys,
I am about to give up on this as I cannot get HDMI audio to my TV no matter what I try.
The card is a PNY Nvidia G210. I am running Arch Linux x86_64 and ALSA 1.0.23 and Nvidia driver 256.33

I've tried the tips from the wiki here in terms of probe masks added to sound.conf but still no joy. http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO_set_ … ,_or_GT240
I've also tried the tips from this post here and still no sound. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=90350
Disabling the motheroard onbonard Intel Audio makes no difference and manually compiling and installing the very latest ALSA driver makes no difference.
Has anyone got HDMI audio working on this card under linux?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer as I have now run out of ideas and if I can't get this to work will have to revert back to my old ASUS EN9400GT card which takes s/pdif from the motherboard for audio out to HDMI.

Works for me too! in my case it was plughw:0,7.
Thank you ever so much!

How do you setup HDMI audio with "Nvidia Quadro 4000 for Mac"?

So I just purchased a new Mac Pro:
Mac Pro (5,1) 3.33 GHz 6-Core
8 GB Ram
ATI Radeon HD 5770
1TB HDD
OS 10.8.3
I also purchased a new Nvidia Quadro 4000 for Mac Graphics Card because the 3D animation software I'm using (Blender) requires this card to accelerate render times.
I have installed the card and all is working well as far as I can tell except for the HDMI audio. According to the specs on Nvidia for this card, it DOES support HDMI audio through the Display port. I have my HDMI cable plugged up and the video works great. However the audio option does not show up in the System Preferences. (Here is the page for the graphics card. Look under "specifications" at the bottom for the audio part. http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-4000-mac-us.html).
I did find a link for a kernel addition for HDMI audio but it stated "non-Apple Nvidia cards" and this one is specifically for Mac. Here is that link: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1499797. (I also plan on posing the same question there.)
The reason I want the HDMI to work is I'm using a TV as my monitor.
Now I did try the HDMI with the ATI Card and both the audio and video work great.
What I did for a quick work around is install both cards and use the GPU processor on the Nvidia for the animation program and use the ATI for the actual port and this fixes the hdmi audio issue. However this takes up pretty much all of my PCI slots and seems like a waste of space and power.
Has anyone else run into this problem and found a solution?? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I went ahead and tried that extension that I found. It worked!
I guess Mac just didn't include the audio support in the driver that it includes. Below is were I found the instructions and download. It includes a shell script that installs the kernal from the Terminal prompt. The instructions were clear and installed with out a hitch. There were also instructions to remove it if there were issues.
Here is the link:

Thanks again and hope this helps.

Wanting sound quality closer to HD caliber. Using gigaworks. Just bought a vid card with hdmi audio

I just got a GTX 560 TI, and my dilemma arose after installing this card and then trying out the HDMI audio, and being amazed at the sound quality I am NOT getting by simply using my sound card. Here are some of my specs which are relevant. I have the said video card, a Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer, a Samsung 40" LCD I use as a monitor, and an Asus P5N motherboard. Also, I am using Creative Gigaworks 7.1 750s speakers. I'm running a mini-hdmi to hdmi cable from my card to TV. Basically I am hearing sound quality from my TV that is absolutely superior to anything that has come out of my speakers and am now wanting to achieve better sound quality for my speakers, but how? Should I get a Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty? New speakers is definitely not what I am looking for right now, and besides that, they are a very powerful set of 7.1's that you just can't find anymore. I know there are HDMI sound cards, but I doubt I would be able to plug my speakers into those. Is there better software I can download to go along with my sound card? I've updated PowerDVD on the off-chance that it would help (even though I knew it wouldn't). I'm really not sure how much help getting a fatal1ty sound card would be. Any suggestions on how to get my PC speakers running up to or NEAR to HD quality?

$200 at all? So no new sound card? Or 200 for receiver only? So following setups are possible using a receiver:
- Use SB, Receiver: so you connect from SB analog to Receiver and from their analog to Speakers, use HDMI/DVI for video seperately. IMHO Bad as it uses much analog points and would have bad sound quality. As long as you don't buy a quality SB, real good analog cables, good receiver. And so we speek over 1000$
- Use GPU and Receiver directly via HDMI. Then Analog to Speakers and HDMI/DVI to TV. No real extra SB needed, but be aware that if you got an nvidia card it may be you need to connect the sound via SPDIF - check: [url=http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/600/">http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/600/[/url] . But as SPDIF only provides 1,5Mbit/s (6Mbit/s in rare cases) and formats like Dolby True HD/Digital Plus, DTS HD Master need 18-25 Mbit/s you won't get highest quality possible as software downsamples quality. But i think anyway these formats are not supported by GPU, thats why 3rd solution exists
- As written above use GPU to SB via HDMI, SB to Receiver via HDMI, Receiver to Speakers via Analog. Most expensive as you need new SB and Receiver but thats the way they want high end sound being provided.
Keep in mind that on 2nd and 3rd solution the receiver must have HDMI I/O! Also check HDMI Version! 1.3/1.4? 7.1 is not nessacary (as your speakers can do 5.1 to 7.1 upmix [url=http://support.creative.com/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?catID=4&subCatID=792&p rodID=9306&prodName=GigaWorks%20S750&subCa tName=Multi-Channel%20Systems&CatName=Speaker+Systems& VARSET=prodfaq:PRODFAQ_9306,VARSET=CategoryID:4">h ttp://support.creative.com/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?catID=4&subCatID=792&p rodID=9306&prodName=GigaWorks%20S750&subCa tName=Multi-Channel%20Systems&CatName=Speaker+Systems& VARSET=prodfaq:PRODFAQ_9306,VARSET=CategoryID:4[/url] ) but you buy a receiver normally just once and so i would recommend to get that too. If you want a good one LipSync, Deep Color, x.v.Color should be onboard too.
So on the second part - why do you think you have to buy new cables and sub? And did i get you right - you want to directly connect the speakers with receiver? No, you have to connect to a sub. Well, if you want the receiver to do the upmix you need the seperate available 4x Stereo or RCA cables as i don't think an receiver will provide 7.1 via the supplied 4x to 3x 7.1 Audio cable.

Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

Show us
cat /proc/asound/cards
This is what I use for ordering the HDA based cards in my system, index=0 is Maudio Audiophile. So you would need to use index=0,1 and use the correct model and probe mask for the nvidia card. Mine is ATI SB Azalia, and a nvidia GT430 with GF108 chip.
options snd-hda-intel index=1,2 model=6stack-dig,auto probe_mask=-1,0x108
