Sound on this system works as expected, but dmesg becomes cluttered with log information that does not appear of significant value, considering the frequency and repetition of the warnings. The following message appears, repeated on multiple consecutive lines: "sound hdaudioC0D0: HDMI ATI/AMD: no speaker allocation for ELD" and on some occasions is accompanied by an entry stating: "[drm:dce4_afmt_write_speaker_allocation] *ERROR* Couldn't read Speaker Allocation Data Block: 0" The system in question is a laptop with an external monitor connected over HDMI. It has been freshly built with Lubuntu 14.10 Beta 2, and the same issue also occurs when using testing the mainline kernel 3.17.0-031700rc7.201409281835. The occasions on which this issue (the repeated warnings) occurs under strict testing conditions include: * Using the Monitor Preferences (LXRandR) to turn OFF and ON the external monitor (approx 10 warnings for each action) * Putting the system into the suspend power mode and subsequently resuming (approx 30 warnings) No warnings occur when: * unplugging or plugging the HDMI cable * locking and unlocking the lightdm desktop I have observed occasions where the warnings are written many, many hundreds of times, on an almost continuous basis, but I have not been able to reproduce this behavior in controlled circumstances.
