I had that with 3d. Change your tv settings to 'fit screen' or something equivalent, reset xbmc video calibration. 3d will be ok

And make sure TV is not overscanned (so calibration is not required). 3d won't work when overscanned.

You should enable "adjust refresh to match video" in settings/video and it will switch for you.
It's likely the TV has different overscan settings for different resolution/resfresh rates.
Check the display menu options (it may be called "just scan", "screen fit", "HD size", "full pixel", "unscaled", "dot by dot", "native" or "1:1")

Remember though, .xbmc-current is a symlink to the active build so I don´t recommend editing/using that as a custom keymap as it will switch back to defaut when switching build, but good to know if you want to use it as a template.
Create remote.xml and put it in the folder keymaps in your user data: /home/pi/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml
This will override the default actions.
The following will use smallstepback when pushing back in fullscreenvideo:
Code:<keymap>
<FullscreenVideo>
<remote>
<back>SmallStepBack</back>
</remote>
</FullscreenVideo>
</keymap>
Just as an example of more things you can do, here is mine remote.xml:
The keyboard part was just a test if it was possible in remote.xml and it was. You can also use <remote> and <button id="xxxx">.Code:<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<blue>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Favourites)</blue>
<red>info</red>
<yellow>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Home)</yellow>
</remote>
<keyboard>
<key id="252">XBMC.RunScript("script.raspbmc.settings")</key>
</keyboard>
</global>
<FullscreenVideo>
<remote>
<zero>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(99))</zero>
<one>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(10))</one>
<two>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(20))</two>
<three>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(30))</three>
<four>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(40))</four>
<five>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(50))</five>
<six>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(60))</six>
<seven>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(70))</seven>
<eight>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(80))</eight>
<nine>PlayerControl(seekpercentage(90))</nine>
<back>SmallStepBack</back>
</remote>
</FullscreenVideo>
</keymap>
To find out which id a button has (or to see if the button is used by XBMC), turn on debug logging and look for "OnKey: xxxx pressed, action is yyyy".
Edit:
Another new feature in Gotham is up and down in fullscreenvideo which now is using ChapterOrBigStepForward/ChapterOrBigStepBack which is the same as BigStepForward/BigStepBack in Frodo.
But in Gotham BigStepForward/BigStepBack will not use chapters even if they exists, so if you don´t like chapters and want 10min steps always you can remap up and down to BigStepForward/BigStepBack.

I switched back to the previous March 23 build (but still kept the latest firmware) and GUI sounds are working fine again. If I need to capture a debug log I won't be able to do that until tomorrow night.
I'm using 2 channel PCM HDMI sound output to a TV with down-mixing enabled in XBMC.

Weird, it is working here, but I guess it depends on setup and hardware(?).
It´ll be included in next build.

It´s working here. Hmmm... similar setup too. What firmware?
I saw in that other thread at Raspbmc forum that you have played around with baclups, that´s why I am asking.
What does 'vcgencmd version' say?

There were two bugs in last build. One treated 16-bit audio as 8-bit causing noise.
One (on firmware) meant mono 8-bit audio was silent.
That combination cancelled out (except for missing notify sound).
I think DBMandrake has updated his firmware (but not the newclock3 patch) which makes the noise become audible.
