Still a problem with pulseaudio-1.1-8.fc17.x86_64 BTW, BIOS upgrade in the meantime enabled audio-output via DVI connector. So right know I have _three_ HDMI-audio devices (for DP, HDMI and DVI connectors) and only one option in Sound Preferences. # aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 1: ALC892 Digital [ALC892 Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 8: HDMI 2 [HDMI 2] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Issue is solved by PulseAudio 2.0 (tested in F18). |
Description of problem: I have Intel H67-based board with Display Port and HDMI outputs. aplay -l/-L list them as: hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=0 HDA Intel PCH, HDMI 0 HDMI Audio Output hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=1 HDA Intel PCH, HDMI 1 HDMI Audio Output card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Those audio HDMI's are fix-routed: - HDMI 0 means output through Display Port connector - HDMI 1 outputs through HDMI connector I have TV connected to HDMI connector. By default, when I switch PA default output to HDMI in GNOME Sound Preferences, I have _no sound_ in TV. This is because PA defaults to "HDMI0". I can force output to HDMI 1 using "hdmi:0,1" string in application like mplayer. The problem is that PA don't give a choice between HDMI0 and HDMI1, giving only "HDMI" (which apparently maps to HDMI0). I workarounded problem by hardcoding following in profile in /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/default.conf: [Mapping hdmi-tv-stereo] device-strings = hdmi:0,1 channel-map = left,right priority = 4 direction = output Now I can select hdmi-tv-stereo as output in GNOME Sound App and the result is what I want: sound going through HDMI1. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pulseaudio-0.9.22-5.fc15.i686 alsa-lib-1.0.24-2.fc15.i686 kernel-PAE-2.6.40-4.fc15.i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect audio receiver to HDMI1 2. Select "HDMI" in gnome sound app output selector 3. Play sound Actual results: Sound comes through HDMI0 (not HDMI1) thus is not audible. Expected results: PulseAudio should provide profile and allow selecting HDMI0 and HDMI1. (Best would be to autodetect which audiocard belongs to current Xorg device, but this is completely different scope; fixing profile should be much easier). Additional info:
