I have a ~/.asoundrc and XBMC works fine with all audio formats.
With no ~/.asoundrc there is no sound from other applicatios like Spotify and Chrome.

mapping a default device via .asoundrc is no problem at all, but mangeling pcm capabilities is a big one.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Please post the logs again. If this is ION-1 then the broken mapping is known. That's a driver bug.

Hi guys
I normally run a complete desktop setup with xbmc on display :0 and then vncserver on display :1 so that I can vnc in and run apps whilst not affecting xbmc. My old setup was running precise/frodo so now I want to do this with tahr/gotham. I installed this release due to running an AMD GPU and the xbmc side of it seems fine.. thanks for that.
Probably off topic so feel free to tell me to get lost... but is there any advice on running a gnome/unity desktop manager alongside this so I can VNC in? I can't seem to get any window manager going even if I edit my xstartup file.
Cheers!

Its news for me that you need any gnome/unity to vnc anywhere. But this isnt the right topic, so look at vnc realted threads here in forums or somewhere else.

What was XBMCbuntu 12 based on? Was it 12.10 or something.
Doing an upgrade is probably going to have to go through the intermediate releases. Upgrades generally only go release-->release or LTS-->LTS.
You will likely experience breakage if you have to go through too many upgrades to get to thar. I would reinstall from scratch (backing up what you want to keep).
