[devil103]

hi all

i'm facing an annoying issue each time after I upgrade XBMC I loose all sound.
I'm using the Xvba branch since I'm on an AMD E35 Fusion platform running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Audio Output is set to HDMI and 2.0 Speaker configuration since I have no AV receiver yet, no sound whatsoever.

Alsamixer revealed that its defaults default is SPDIF and not the ATI HDA SB device as I would suspect.
When changing the Audio Ouput Device the debug log always displays

Code:

21:41:22 T:140002094487296    INFO: CAESinkALSA::Initialize - Attempting to open device "default"
21:41:22 T:140002094487296    INFO: CAESinkALSA::Initialize - Opened device "default"
21:41:22 T:140002094487296   DEBUG: CAESinkALSA::InitializeHW - Request: periodSize 2205, bufferSize 8820
21:41:22 T:140002094487296   DEBUG: CAESinkALSA::InitializeHW - Got: periodSize 2205, bufferSize 8820
21:41:22 T:140002094487296   DEBUG: CAESinkALSA::InitializeHW - Setting timeout to 200 ms

Maybe the default of alsa is incorrect? However since I deleted al my asound.conf files as per the new AE I have no way of selecting another default.
Passthrough is also greyed out BTW. I seem to remember I could fix this last time by putting passthrough also on HDA ATI Sb HDMI...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
