HDMI no sound output
Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2014 8:24 pm
Hi out there,
I've been trying, for a long time, to have out-put sound when I connect my laptop using HDMI. Of course I've searched a lot, but nothing seems to apply 100% to my case (or I'm too ignorant to apply it to my case.)
First of all, I've sticked with this solution, which seems to solve other people problem:

Following the steps:
Now, everything seems to be fine, since my HDMI is recognized.
When I apply "alsamixer -c 0", the only things which are not at 100% are
Mic Boos =32
S/PDIF =MM
S/PDIF 1 =00
Inernal =11
I guess that Mic Boos and Internal have nothing to do with my problem (here they are related to the microphone), so I leave them just like that. The S/PDIF I don't care to change, since according to wikipedia they have nothing to do with HDMI.
So, my gamble is that everything should be ok.
But it's not.
Following the instructions in crunchbang, I run
The first one is a check, and works, my speakers play the music. When I try the second and third, things turn out to be no so nice: there's no sound. Before you ask, yes, I have the HDMI plugged.
I also tried "speaker-test -c 2 -r 48000 -D hw:", for hw=0,0;0,3 and 0,7. I have sound in the first case, but no sound in any of the other cases.
I now I'm stuck. I don't know how to proceed. Nor haven't found a way to get output sound for hw 0,3 or 0,7.
Any suggestions?
Saludos!
ps: by the way, I don't think it matter, but anyway, my soundcard is
