HDMI audio issue again !
#1
Hi,
I have just install xbmc, my audio output is set on HDMI and 2.0 speaker for my TV.
Audio was working for one day, and suddenly no sound, while i have sound on the TV on ubuntu.
I have already search on the web for my issue. One thing i do not understand....even in audio setting expert mode, i do not have all audio option like that http://i.imgur.com/ULtxe.png?1 even in expert level.
And second thing, i cannot figured out why the fuck the audio suddenly stop working.

My xbmc is running on ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
On Ubuntu desktop i have sound from the laptop and from the tv.
Since one day, on XBMC i dont have any sound on laptop or tv.

Thanks for the help

Debug log (wiki) and screenshot of your audio settings.

But first, are you sure you didn't mute xbmc?

one weird thing is that by default the sound is at -30db i don't know why, and the maximum that i can get is 0.0db

Yes 0.0dB is full volume.

For the debug log, xbmc says that it is in home/user/.xbmc/temp/ but there is no directory temp in ./xbmc directory

Are you on kodi? If so everything has changed to /home/$USER/.kodi

The other difference is that the dialog you posted in your first post is from an earlier version of xbmc than what you are running.

I think i have the last version, because xbmc is installed since only two days......the gotham version.
i dont have /.kodi directory

Then your log will be in /home/$USER/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log

for the user running xbmc.

Ok, i have solved the sound issue.
I had to issue the cmd
sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio libasound2-plugins
sudo reboot

And magic, i get a lot more audio device and i select my Nvdia graphic card audio to the tv, and it works.
