My setup involves an external Denon AVR-791 amp that I have hooked up with SPDIF. However, I have also been able to reproduce the problem using HDMI from my AMD 6950 and using the plain old headphone 3.5 mm plug from my motherboard. I believe that this means the problem is not due to a sound card since the SPDIF should be using my amp's sound car and the headphone plug should be using my motherboard (ASUS P6T Deluxe V2) built in sound card, but I could be wrong. I am using Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS This is my first bug submit, so please let me know if there is anything else I can provide...
