LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] no HDMI audio in Linux

- Linux - Hardware (https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/)

- - no HDMI audio in Linux (https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/no-hdmi-audio-in-linux-819172/)

Try adding:

Code:

options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=0xfff2

to '/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf'.

Should I create my non-existent sound.conf file? Thanks

I don't have a sound.conf file there. Should I create it? Thanks

Yes, you should create it and add the line to it.

Thanks! That made HDMI appear in alsamixer now, but the audio levels weren't zero, so HDMI audio probably still won't work on when connected to the HDMI TV. I'll check and let you know for sure. Thanks

Hi All,

I have a similar problem and I have not been able to get HDMI audio working either. I have installed the Linux NVIDIA drivers and 'aplay -l' cannot see the HDMI audio device. I am running Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.4 (squeeze) (32-bit). I will copy my results of the commands requested by lpallard when trying to help layr. Hopefully someone here may be able to help me with this.

Thanks for any help. I have been trying to get this working for a long time now and do not seem to be getting very far.
