Hey guys, rather than use xbmcbuntu 11.10 as base I figure I try the minimal ubuntu as described in OP. (I'm using the xbmc-xvba-testing ppa)
But I run into problems, everything seems to be fine except I don't get "PCM" audio. I get passthrough (ac3/dts) audio but not normal audio. I tried the mini.iso listed in OP, and I try both 32bit and 64bit ubuntu 12.10 mini.iso. My soundcard is a CMI8770. Any ideas what is wrong ?
I use device 2 for passthrough, and I try both 0 and 1 but no normal sound, I check alsamixer and it's not muted. On xbmcbuntu device 0 gives audio.
