20160521 workaround: use PulseAudio Volume control, don't use ubuntu packaged volume control. replug HDMI at TV. May 21,2016 Ubuntu 14.04 The standard volume control in the settings manager on unity does not reassign HDMI correctly. If I use the PulseAudio volume control (pavucontrol) only, then I can switch the output back and forth using the "Playback on" button on the playback tab. Configuration Tab can also make changes but is not simple. Note: my TV remembers the sound is not present when I use the standard ubuntu volume control to switch back to pc speakers. I have to replug the HDMI cable on the TV to reset TV after closing the standard volume control.
my hardware contains both DPORT and HDMI. 3.13.0-86-generic 64 bit Initially 20160521 I removed alsa and pulsaudio. Then I reloaded both with all suggested extra software (apt-get). this worked to get audio through HDMI. but as soon as I switched back to pc speakers, I could not get it to work any more. tried many things till a random combination of settings with plugging HDMI at TV set got it working. Then there were more problems after switching back to pc speakers using standard volume control. finally discovered that PulseAudio volume control will switch output ports correctly, but fuctionality is dissabled as soon as you use the ubuntu volume control to switch back to pc speakers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572063 Title: [NO SOUND] 10.04 - Intel Corporation 82801H HD Audio Controller (rev 03) Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: pulseaudio 1) rprice@alienware:~/Desktop$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 - 2) rprice@alienware:~/Desktop$ apt-cache policy pulseaudio pulseaudio: Installed: 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu14 Candidate: 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu14 Version table: *** 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu14 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - 3) Audio to work after installation with both analog and digital (HDMI) - 4) Audio does not work after installation.
