I don't get why AMD isn't offering a 'Force Detect' option for HDMI video or audio. They had optical 'Force Detect' for composite video output for cases where the card failed to recognise a composite device hooked up for it. ...Ya know, back when cards had Composite/S-Video outputs. :X

I have had the same problem. This problem is super annoying and disrupts the "ease of use" of the HTPC overall.
Can't believe that I haven't seen more posts about this.
Excited to try the fix posted above. (Edit: unfortunately, only for 7900 and 7800. Hopefully a fix for the 6550 or A8-3850 comes out soon.)
Thanks & rep'd.

See if your AVR has a pass through option in the setting and turn it on

I can confirm that the "Disabled HDMI audio when the connected HDTV is powered Off/On." still exists in 12.7 beta and is NOT fixed for HD 6450.
This is quite annoying as it has stopped me from upgrading for the past 6 months.

I had the same problem with 12.xx drivers for a HD 6450 as well.
I ended up rolling it back to an 11.10 driver and have had no problems since. Not going to upgrade the driver at all now. It was way too much of a hassle to finally get it working correctly.

I hate ATI's drivers for HTPC.
