I have nearly completed my xbmc eden install but can't seem to get menu sounds to work. I edited the .asoundrc file to what it was during dharma but that didn't seem to work. Any ideas? I figured this has been answered but I couldn't find a link.

my menu sounds used to work beautifully until xbmc hung up and i could only reboot my system. After that, I haven't heard a peep from the menu...

We need to know what hardware you're using and what the output of aplay -l (lowercase L) is before helping you out. Do you have an /etc/asound.conf file? What are your audio output devices set to in XBMC?

I have the same problem I am also running a Revo 1600 with eden. Passthrough audio(AC3 etc...) works great, Movies encoded with mp3 audio will play fine, but I can't for the life of me make menu sounds work.
In my case there is no .asoundrc file present.

Way back when I switched to XBMC I had the same problem. I'd gotten rid of PulseAudio and I'd created a .asoundrc file and had audio (including AC3 and DTS) over HDMI working, But I couldn't get menu sounds no matter what. Finally a caught of mention of a library I didn't have installed: libsdl1.2debian-alsa. Installing that library fixed it.
