@Totally King, is it possible you let me try your patched kernel with my hardware? I'm not able to apply the patches and everything. I'd like to see if my bugreport is a duplicate of yours. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1310594
Thank you -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1467190 Title: No audio over DisplayPort MST Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I have a Lenovo ThinkPad E540 with an Intel Haswell (4th Gen) HD graphics controller connected to a OneLink Pro Dock. The Dock uses DisplayPort (DP) 1.2 MST (multi stream transport) to provide both a DP and a DVI port. My monitor is connected to the DP. When I used kernels <= 3.16 audio worked fine, but the monitor would flicker heavily. So I installed linux-lts-vivid (3.19) which fixed the graphics problem (now I can see various DP? outputs in xrandr as opposed to one before), but there is no DP audio output to chose anymore. I also tested the latest mainline kernel 4.1-rc8, where this bug still exists. To further investigate I got these version's kernel sources, applied 4 patches by Dave Airlie from the intel-gfx mailing list [1] and tested this build (4.1-rc8+), which fixed the problem! I can play sound over DP, the same way I can over HDMI or DP without MST. I hope it is possible to backport these changes!
