When playing video files in XBMC, everything works fine if the file has Dolby Digital or DTS audio in it. If the file has mp3 audio, I get no sound. My computer is hooked up via HDMI to an Onkyo A/V receiver which plays the audio and forwards the video on to the television.
I have an Aspire Revo 3610 (which has an integrated Nvidia graphics card) running Ubuntu Linux 10.10. I have uninstalled PulseAudio. I installed xbmc from the SVN ppa (I am currently running XBMC 10.0 r35648..compiled December 17, 2010). My xbmc.log file can be viewed at http://pastebin.com/GAhvKT1Z. Note that in my debug log I play two files, the first one has mp3 audio and I get no sound. The second file has Dolby Digital 2.0 and sound works as expected.
Here are some useful things from my box:

Thanks for looking and for any advice!
