Hello,
I'm a {xbmc, linux} noob, who after reading many posts, realizes that my awesome build included ATI And now I am quite regretful, but stuck with it.
I have read numerous posts and trying out different configurations before posting. Obviously nothing helped. I would greatly appreciate any help I can get!
Configuration:
Ubuntu 11.10
AMD A6-3650 APU
ASROCK A75M-HVS FM1
Conencted via HDMI to Onkyo receiver
A few things I've tried:
Followed advice here to install 11.10 catalyst driver:
http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_...tion_Guide
Ensured that in alsamixer everything is unmuted (I only have 1 card, with spdif as only option).
In XBMC i've tried setting passthrough sound to: hdmi, hw:0,3, plughw:0,3 (all of these work with speaker-test -D). With always the same results:
I've tried adding alsa sink to pulse default.pa config, this leads to me loosing sound altogether:
Also added my user to audio, video groups.
Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
