I'm running my audio through hdmi, which means that I've lost navigation sounds. I'm assuming that this is because they're analog, but is there any to way pass them over the hdmi? My concern is that I'd like to be able to play FretsOnFire using Launcher, but with no sound, it's kind of pointless. Is my only option to run an s/pdif cable? That would seem a shame, since I went to a fair amount of trouble to get audio over hdmi working in the first place.

did you set the hdmi as passthrough in audio settings?

When we have passthrough device we dont push through navigational sounds
So my guess is you should not use digital device and set instead of default to plughw:0,3 in audiosettings.

Okay now I am confused. On the ASUS board I have setup for HDMI audio I *DO* get NAV sounds and 51 stereo but do NOT get 2 channel stereo sound from say MP3 playback.
So, it IS possible and I'm doing the nav sounds but umm would like to have stereo playback! I'm upgrading my system using this same board so I will soon be knee deep in this on my system and I would like it all...

Well, if I use topfs2's advice I get... no sound. So I'm not really sure where to go from here.
