nvidia HDMI ion2 audo trouble - xb4me - 2014-01-30 Please help. HDMI audo via xbmc works great for movies, and music. I passthru direct to my yamaha amp. Even truehd works. Somehow, and now I forget how, I got netflix audo ( and other firefox audio ) working launched via advanced launcher. This was great, but it suddenly stopped working, and I just cannot figgure it out. I have tried everything I can think of or read, and nothing seems to work. Here is my setup: aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC662 rev1 Analog [ALC662 rev1 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC662 rev1 Digital [ALC662 rev1 Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 and aplay -L null Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture) pulse PulseAudio Sound Server sysdefault:CARD=Intel HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Default Audio Device front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Front speakers surround40:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog 4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog 4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog 5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers surround51:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog 5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog 7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Digital IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output dmix:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Direct sample mixing device dmix:CARD=Intel,DEV=1 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Digital Direct sample mixing device dsnoop:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Direct sample snooping device dsnoop:CARD=Intel,DEV=1 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Digital Direct sample snooping device hw:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Direct hardware device without any conversions hw:CARD=Intel,DEV=1 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Digital Direct hardware device without any conversions plughw:CARD=Intel,DEV=0 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog Hardware device with all software conversions plughw:CARD=Intel,DEV=1 HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Digital Hardware device with all software conversions hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output dmix:CARD=NVidia,DEV=3 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 Direct sample mixing device dsnoop:CARD=NVidia,DEV=3 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 Direct sample snooping device hw:CARD=NVidia,DEV=3 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 Direct hardware device without any conversions plughw:CARD=NVidia,DEV=3 HDA NVidia, HDMI 0 Hardware device with all software conversions Previously I had the following file: more /etc/asound.conf pcm.!defaut hdmi:NVidia pcm:iec958 hdmi:NVidia For grins I tried replacing it with: pcm.!default { type hw card NVidia device 3 } ctl.!default { type hw card NVidia device 3 } but neither of these work anymore. I just don't get it, how do I diagnose this. It is really frustrating, I want my netflix back...

Check that nothing is muted. RE: nvidia HDMI ion2 audo trouble - xb4me - 2014-01-31 Nothing is muted. Also once again xbmc works fine, it is other applications that do not have audio. Also the other funny thing is it worked fine previously, and I did nothing to muck with the audio config. The only thing I did do was apt-get upgrade/update..., but I am not even sure that is related. Can anyone recommend something further to try? speaker-test runs fine but outputs nothing. Logging into xbmcbuntu yields no sound. I just don't get it. What should my next step be? RE: nvidia HDMI ion2 audo trouble [SOLVED!] - xb4me - 2014-02-03 I fixed my problem, I thought I would write it up incase it helps anyone else. First off this is a Jetway NC98-525E-LF ion2 with nvidia hdmi chipset. Code: uname -a And I upgraded to xbmc 12.3, but it did not fix my problem. Previously somehow... I had it working with xbmc and firefox audio via advanced launcher with audio over the nvidia hdmi, then it suddenly stopped working. Previously, somehow I was using the nvidia audio and ignoring the intel audo device also present. When I originally posted, XBMC audio was working great, both passthu and gui audio, but no audio whatsoever through firefox, and speaker-test -D plughw 1,3 ( which worked before ) ran fine, but did not output any sound. So, after getting no help I just started trying stuff. I figgured the problem was somehow related to having two different audio devices ( just a guess ), so I went into the bios trying to diable the intel device that I was not using anyway. There is only one audio setting in the bios I could find, and that was "HD audio" I set it to disabled, and rebooted. After that, I got a different 'aplay -l' list as follows: Code: aplay -l Previously I was only showing 1 Nvidia HDMI device, now I have 4 ( and no Intel ). So now booting into xbmcbuntu desktop, I ran alsamixer and now there were 3 more spdif devices not previously found ( all muted ). So, unmuting those new devices, and I finally got some noise from speaker-test with: Code: speaker-test -D plughw 0,7 speaker-test -D plughw 0,3, 0,8, and 0,9 all work but output no audio... Progress, I figgure for sure. Now I tried to edit /etc/asound.rc with the new card and device numbers, like so: Code: more /etc/asound.conf And rebooted, but that did nothing. I think I finally made it work by modifying ~/.asoundrc file like so: Code: pcm.dmixer { After the reboot, with XBMC running, speaker-test still fails, but netfix thru firefox works like a charm. I am not sure about the sugnificance of asound.conf or ~/asoundrc, or what in them is important, but something there did the trick. A reboot is necessary. Also I had to change the xbmc audio settings after the bios diable step to get xbmc working again... Hope this helps someone, I am happy ;-) RE: nvidia HDMI ion2 audo trouble - toasterboy1 - 2014-05-29 Thanks for this thread. It got my Nvidia sound over HDMI working so I could watch Netflix. |
