I'm severely confused now.
For reference this is an hp pavillion dv6700 with an NVidia 8400m
I'm using the eden build of XBMC
I've run alsamixer and unmute all options (making sure to tab over to get them all)
I've run lspci | grep -i Audio
I've run aplay -l and/or aplay -L to see audio devices. This is where it is weird , I don't see anything refered to as HDMI under audio... am I missing a driver or something?
There are about a million threads with the same fix, go into XBMC and setup audio output to plughw:<card#>,<dev#> for the HDMI device. My problem is I dont have an HDMI option listed. Do all HDMI devices support audio over HDMI?
Note: Video over HDMI is working fine.

There are about a million threads with the same fix, go into XBMC and setup audio output to plughw:<card#>,<dev#> for the HDMI device. My problem is I dont have an HDMI option listed. Do all HDMI devices support audio over HDMI?
