Zach... can you replicate the problem? I am curious that even though your problem is a bit diff (audio worked for me with DVDs only, thus s a DD 5.1 data stream) Instead of trying your fix right away run iecset in a terminal and post the contents... should look like this. if your Digital Output (iec958, aka S/PDIF) is on.
Mode: consumer Data: audio Rate: 48000 Hz Copyright: permitted Emphasis: none Category: PCM coder Original: original Clock: 1000 ppm If off, then your output would look like something like this... Mode: consumer Data: non-audio Rate: 48000 Hz Copyright: permitted Emphasis: none Category: PCM coder Original: original Clock: 1000 ppm the switch for enabling the PCM data stream is iecset audio on iecset audio off I don't think this is a bug, but rather a incredibly poorly documented aspect of the control over the Digital Signal stream\outputs. And we just havent ran into the Linux Audiophiles (if they are out there) than know and can explain the ins\outs of this in Linux. -- Alsa loses AC'97 SPDIF output in Feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
