Summary: HDMI audio does not work with HD4200 IGP but does work with radeonhd Product: DRI Version: XOrg CVS Platform: x86-64 (AMD64) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: seanius@debian.org
I've been using the radeonhd driver for some time due to the fact that it supports audio over HDMI, so i can have everything routed to my HDMI receiver over one cable.
I read that recently the radeon driver was supposed to offer support for this as well, and since it's otherwise a better driver i thought i'd give it a go. unfortunately, i am greeted with the sound of silence, and not hte simon and garfunkel version (which would equally be surprising, but...). if i switch my xorg config to use the radonhd driver audio still works on this machine, but without running x or with x running and radeon driver loaded, nothing.
alsa sees the devices, and I can play to it via sox, but I don't hear anything.
here's some info that might be useful, please let me know if you need anything else.
