do you mean HDMI audio work ?

control.8 {
                iface CARD
                name 'HDMI/DP,pcm=7 Jack'
                value true
                comment {
                        access read
                        type BOOLEAN
                        count 1
                }
        }

do your video driver pass ELD to audio controller ?

 cat /proc/asound/card1/eld#1.0

what are the period size and buffer size for HDMI audio ?

 cat /proc/asound/card1/pcm1p/sub0/hw_params

Title:
  NVIDIA HDMI audio needs a bigger bdl_pos_adj

Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Right after my system finishes booting, when it plays the welcome
  sound, I get this in dmesg:

  hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #1. Suggest a
  bigger bdl_pos_adj

  
  This gives me a few bad side effects:

  1) Sound latency is way too high with pulseaudio, and it's even higher
  with alsa dmix.

  2) Bad sound quality in most of the games I've tried (sound
  interrupts, distortion, lots of buffer underruns).

  3) Crackling noise in MAME (specially with older games).

  
  Adding the following line to "/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf" seems to solve 
my problems:
       options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 bdl_pos_adj=-1,64

  After that, I don't get the error in dmesg anymore, sound latency is
  much better, and the buffer underruns / crackling are gone.

  So I suggest a bigger "bdl_pos_adj" should be made default for NVIDIA
  HDMI sound cards. I'm not saying it should be 64, because this value
  is guessed.

  -1, 1, 32 will give me the error in dmesg and all related problems

  48 gives me mixed results, no error in dmesg, but I still get buffer
  underruns sometimes

  64 gives me bigger latency than 48, but I didn't get any buffer
  underruns with this value so far.
