UBUNUTU 10.04
XBMC V11 EDEN
I have just bought a AV receiver and have been trying to get the XBMC audio working. It seems that I have to alternate between either menu sounds or movie sounds
I originally had pulseaudio installed which was making sure that my linux system sounds and anything run on the desktop could be heard and this works fine when i output via analogue but now I want to be running 5.1 though the receiver.
I did a aplay -L when i had pulse audio working and got the following
I then used the following line as a custom passthrough "hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0" but this still made no difference
I then removed pulse audio and now I can get movie audio but all my navigation sounds and my music playback via either xbmc or standard desktop have gone.
any thoughts? anything you need me to produce? I know why its not working as i have removed pulse audio but just not sure how to get the two working in harmony?? I've already been a little kamikave but time to let the pro's give me a little advice.
