Linux Unable to play audio over HDMI

Music 
Hi All

I've followed the directions listed on the wiki page for getting audio out over HDMI to work, but am stuck when adding the PPA's. I have just installed the latest XBMCbuntu 11.0 and was able to add the PPA's through the shell.. but when updating I get the following:

Code:
Err http://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric/main Sources                                                  
  404  Not Found
Err http://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric/main i386 Packages                                            
  404  Not Found

and then at the end of the update process:

Code:
W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-iquik/alsa/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-iquik/alsa/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Here is the hardware in my system:

Code:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL Memory Controller Hub (rev 0e)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL PCI Express Root Port (rev 0e)

02:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13)

The motherboard has on-board audio, but has been disabled in the BIOS.
Can anyone help as I am unable to proceed with the wiki steps as I am unable to install / update from the mentioned PPA's.

Thanks!
