No Sound via HDMI - JoshM - 2012-09-24 Hi, I am setting up a fresh install of XBMCbuntu 11. At first no sound was running through the HDMI port (not even when watching a video in Chromium on YouTube). I created a .asoundrc and set the "hdmi:HDMI" device as the default. Now I get sound from Chrome. However, I get no sound in XBMC even after fiddling with the audio settings. Here is the output from aplay -l: Code: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** Here is the output of aplay -L (only for the HDMI "card"): Code: hdmi:CARD=HDMI,DEV=0 Here is my .asoundrc: Code: pcm.!default hdmi:HDMI In XBMC I have the output set to HDMI and I have tried setting the Audio Output and Passthrough to things such as:
What else should I try? Thanks! RE: No Sound via HDMI - JoshM - 2012-10-02 Fixed it! I set both Audio Output Device and Audio Passthru Device to: Code: alsa:plughw:1,3 RE: No Sound via HDMI - SikeMo - 2012-11-06 Did you still require a .asoundrc file in the Home folder when you did this? Confirm you set alsa:plughw:1,3 in "Custom" for each? I have a similar setup with a Radeon 6770 card and have been struggling with this for months. RE: No Sound via HDMI - Vaevictus2 - 2012-11-06 anyone reading this that is having problems getting sound over hdmi working, I highly recommend the recent Frodo builds of XBMC, I had big problems with a NVIDIA G210 (no navigation sounds, popping etc) and going to Frodo fixed it straight away RE: No Sound via HDMI - SikeMo - 2012-11-06 I'm going to give Frodo a whirl right now. RE: No Sound via HDMI - negge - 2012-11-06 I didn't get HDMI audio to work either without specifying the device as plughw. Upgrading to Frodo fixed it. RE: No Sound via HDMI - danrogers1982 - 2012-11-10 aplay -l gives me no sound card found. Running openelec 2.0 on a custom htpc with ivy bridge i5k on an asrock mobo. Was working fine with xbmc in Windows 7. Over hdmi. I do have sound, bit it feels ghetto using an optical cable straight into the surround sound. Any suggestions? RE: No Sound via HDMI - chrisuk - 2012-11-10 Hi guys, kind of a noob when it comes to this, but i set up my acer revo a couple of years ago with Ubuntu 9.10XBMCLive tty2. All worked fine for a couple of years (dual boot into xbmc or win7). I decided to upgrade last night to - XBMCFreak - XBMCbuntu 12.04 with pre-Frodo (end October release) All seemed to work fine, but I can't get any sound working via hdmi (using TV speakers). Tried all variations of settings in the menu, but was wondering if I had to run anything via the console ?? Been Googling for hours but I'm lost now - any advice ? Thanks Chris RE: No Sound via HDMI - chrisuk - 2012-11-10 Sorted it. In the console, typed in Alsamixer & unmuted the S/PDIF 1 option by highlighting & pressing "M" Hope this helps somebody RE: No Sound via HDMI - psxstudio - 2012-12-12 (2012-11-10, 11:44)chrisuk Wrote: Sorted it. Thanx alot for that info... that helped out on my Acer R3610 when I switched to HDMI output. Kinda odd that we had to unmute the S/SDIF 1 via alsamixer. Everything is working properly now. |
