Putting defaults.pcm.device 0 and nothing else in .asoundrc in my home directory fixed all my HDMI sound issues for me in XBMC. After I created that file I rebooted and in XBMC I set it to use the default sound device.

try setting it as defaults.pcm.device 7 since your hdmi device is not 0 like mine. Also make sure you reboot after each change.

You may also try:

defaults.pcm.device 3

Also if this gives you menu sound but no movie sound uncheck DTS and AC3 passthrough in XBMC and see if you get sound then.

Your "aplay -L" output indicates that you have two "hdmi" plugs. Try testing the default one with:

Code:
$ speaker-test -D plug:hdmi

Also, just for good measure, make sure your user is a member of the "audio" group:

Code:
$ groups <user>

If "audio" isn't listed, let us know.

defaults.pcm.device 3 = not any sound
defaults.pcm.device 3 = menu sound in xbmc but no movie sound

xbmc is restart every time

Once you had menu sound working did you make sure AC3 and DTS passthrough were disabled?

Do you have have any of the video syncing options enabled? If so disable them.

Also what is you "Audio Output" set on, Analog or HDMI?
