Okay, I upgraded my Asrock 330 to 10.10 and have lost sound - mostly. Everything is unmuted in Alsamixer. MP3 play fine at the desktop. Currently I get navigation sounds but nothing else. I had music working in XBMC using Pulseaudio but if I watched a movie that required passthru I got no audio. Currently I have Pulseaudio removed.
I have a custom audio device for both normal audio and XBMC. The device is listed as "plughw:0,3" When I attempt to play MP3 I get a failed to initialize message. I am running SVN code, it was compiled when Pulse was installed - do I need to recompile? I would think not but just in case...

I'd appreciate some help.
Sound has got to be THE most frustrating thing right up there with video
I DO currently have nav sounds - very weird. Turning off the settings for AC3 and DTS make no difference - my receiver IS capable though and I would normally want those on. I'd prefer to have Pulseaudio installed but....
The .asoundrc file I used to use is as follows:
Code:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "hdmi"
}
}
