Luke, i'm very sorry but I've waited a while and never got any response when I 
opened the bug so I gave up and installed Windows on the PC.  Therefore, I can 
no longer do what you're suggesting.
You can close this bug if you want.

 Tito

Please try installing linux-alsa-driver-modules-2.6.31-19-generic from
the ubuntu-audio-dev PPA, reboot and report back as to whether audio is
audible via the HDMI connection.

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

Bug description:
This bug has been automatically assigned to the alsa-driver package based on 
instruction provided in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems for 
creating a bug but not sure if it is an alsa-driver issue.  

This is a fresh install of 9.10 on an HP Slimline s3100e PC with a HD
Radeon 4650 card.  I can get video out of HDMI with no problem but I can
not get audio out of HDMI.

aplay -L returns the following:
----------------------
hdmi:CARD=HDMI
    HDA ATI HDMI, ATI HDMI
    HDMI Audio Output
null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
pulse
    Playback/recording through the PulseAudio sound server
----------------------------------

However, I noticed in other peoples posting that first line of the the
aplay -L output normally has a DEV=0 at the end.  My output does not.
Don't know if this is a problem.

aplay -l (lower case L) shows the following:

As you can see it is unmuted however, i can not increase the volume
here.  It stays at 00.

Some other posting I have seen is creating a file called /etc/asound.conf and 
added the following lines:
pcm.!default hdmi:HDMI
pcm.iec958 hdmi:HDMI

Tried it (even rebooted) and it didn't work.


And yet another solution was to created a file called 
/etc/modprobe.d/hda_intel.conf and add the following line:
options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1

This also did not work (even after reboot).


I'm seriously at a loss here and do not know what else to do.  I'm fairly new 
to linux (disclaimer).
I have not downloaded any of the proprietary drivers for this card.
I would prefer to stay away from that but if it's the only option then I would 
give it a go.
