@gnif I tried the latest version and Dolby True HD seems to be working correctly now, no problems with the sound anymore, but DTS HD still doesnt work

@einhänder : add debug when you compile.

@grote002 - Can you please provide a full log for DTS HD, and if possible a sample file also.

As far as I remember the debug flag is necessary to get additional debugging symbols relevant for meaningful backtraces (gdb/core dump)? Nevertheless I'm going to build it with "debug" enabled to see if there will be a difference.

However I thought it would be a good idea to move "~/.xbmc" and to start with a fresh profile in order to see if there is something involved in writing the enumeration info to the log. I set up my audio settings as usual and surprisingly everything works like it should with that new profile - all issues were gone.

But there is a "but". As soon as I completely resembled my former settings it went back to the reported problems. Yet I wasn't able to track down which setting enforces the faulty behaviour.
Could anyone give me an example how the enumeration information in the log looks like please? So I could compare if these details are finally included.

EDIT: False alarm, yesterday evening it worked like described above, today it does not. At least it is not alway reproduceable.

I did? Oh well, I'm going to re-compile tonight and test again. I had the issue with a build built on Saturday where if I restarted lightdm, I would get no sound on the initial run of XBMC, but if I exited XBMC, and went back in, sound was fine.

Unfortunately I didn't have debugging turned on, and my wife was looking forward to starting Season 4 of SoA...so I couldn't go back and try and duplicate the issue with debugging turned on at that particular moment (real life...always interferring). I'll try again tonight and hopefully get some information the important folks can use.

@gnif
Now I've got XBMC to print the needed information. There was no need to rebuild the bin, just using the parameter --debug helped.
Here is a log from my standard profile right after a fresh start: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/586242/

If you want me to re-post the logs from my previous report showing what happens during different situations then just let me know please.

@gnif I still can't get pastebin to accept my pastes. I don't know what the issue is... I presume it's me because nobody else seems to be complaining about it. Multiple PC's and browsers here just hang when posting.

In the mean time, I've noticed that in the log there's an extra line that's there when audio fails:
Code:
INFO: CAESinkALSA::EnumerateDevicesEx - Unable to open hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0 for capability detection

So it seems as though something is stealing the card, but again this wasn't an issue in builds prior to the large hold on development leading up to Eden's release.

Stupid question, anything I should be --enabling or --disabling with the ./configure prior to compile?

Here's the audio enumeration code:
Code:

little offtopic, but i can't stand to clear these things up:

@einhänder - i guess activating debugging in XBMC system settings would do the trick aswell
@fincheresque - sounds like a mtu problem. You could try to reduce the MTU below 1500 (e.x. 1400) on the network adapter you use for pastebin.
