I have installed XBMCbuntu, and having issues with sound.

I am using a Nvidia GT440 Card.

my aplay -l info is

xbmc@xbmc:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Subdevices: 1/1

I have created custom for the following

Audio Output Device - Custom - plughw:0,7

Passthrough - Custom - plughw:0,7

I get DTS and DD when playing a movie, but get no sound from either music or menu.

Can anyone help in this issue

Try creating an /etc/asound.conf file with the following:

Code:
pcm.!default {

   type plug

   slave {

       pcm "hw:0,7"

   }

}

Then reboot and see if there are any changes. You can also try plughw:0,8 and plughw:0,9, changing the asound.conf file accordingly to see if that yields any improvements. I've found that the last interface, in your case 0,9, tends to work a lot of the times, but you also have to play around a bit.

Excellent Thanks works a treat used hw:0,7.

Thanks
