Just had a look at that, looks like yours will be "plughw:0,7"
Make sure you change device AND passthrough to those settings, obviously set your output to HDMI at the top and anything else that is relevent, etc etc

Can you please post the contents of the file: /tmp/debugInfo.txt
This will allow us to investigate why sound isn't working.

robo: None of the plughw combos work from 9 down to 1. I did SSH in and noticed that alsamixer was reporting that the card was muted. I unmuted but still no sound. I did notice that plughw:0,3 was the only combo that didn't report a sound initialization error. All other settings in XBMC are corrrect - HDMI, 5.1, Dolby / DTS Amp, etc.

I fixed my sound issue by creating a sound.conf file using the following settings:
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=0 probe_mask=0xffff,0xfff2
I then used alsamixer to unmute 3 out of the 4 S/PDIF's that were listed. I then set both sound options in XBMC to Custom then entered plughw:0,8 in the fields below.

Yeah, that was mentioned in Post #5 and I did that. Anything else that might work? Speaker-test has sound coming out fine but XBMC just won't do it.

I downloaded the Beta of 12 and everything worked OOB.
