Hi everybody,
I just installed a fresh Ubuntu 11.10 on my Acer Revo 3610. I installed Eden Beta 3 and everything works, except audio in movies. Menu audio works fine using HDMI output, but everytime I start a movie (does not matter if it's DTS/AC3 or any other format, even MP3 does not work) there is a message: Unable to initialize your sound device. Check audio settings (I hope I translated correctly from my german system).
I tried to uninstall pulse-audio, tried several tweaks that I found in some forums....nothing....
A aplay -l gives me the
does work....
I already tried to set the device for audio/passthrough in XBMC to plughw:0,3, but again...nothing.
One (maybe?) weird thing: It does not matter what audio device I chose from the menu: The menu sounds works like a charm: always...
Do you have any hints? I really love Eden's AirPlay feature, I want to use it here ;-)
Thanks,
Jan
