May not be the ideal solution, but along with choosing it as the default output device in the kde settings I also put the following in ~/.asoundrc so everything should default to using my hdmi audio.
Code:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 0
device 3
}
The values I got by running "aplay -l" which shows me which "card" and "device" for my hdmi audio interface.
Code:
**** 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: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
The first time I did this was on machine using a motherboard with onboard amd hdmi so it's not intel specific and will probably work for you also if I understand your problem correctly.
Hope this helps.
Hello together, after I read this article
this article about MediaMonkey,I tried to install it on the actual Ubuntu, but I cant get the sound to work with it. Could you help me modify it to work on Ubuntu or its not possible? I really liked the design and the way it works so I would be really amazed if I could solve the problem or get another similar program compatible with Linux...thanks for your help:-)
