I ordered the in that Ned Scott suggested, which also has an analog port. http://www.dx.com/p/hdv-m612-hdmi-to-hdm...5u-aBaSOz0

This device looks promising for about $15 (except for shipping time...): http://www.amazon.com/CompuLab-fit-Headl...roduct_top

I have my Fire TV plugged into this HDMI switch and it works well; the IR works with my Harmony remote as well.

Uh, just to be clear, the cheap HDMI switch I bought does in fact work as an HDMI switch. It will relay the FTV output to a display. What it doesn't work for, is to fool the Fire TV into thinking there is an HDMI display attached when, in fact there isn't, and therefore allowing the Fire TV to output audio on the SPDIF port for use as a headless music streamer. My AV receiver will do this, but it is doing something much more involved than a simple switch because it has to overlay its menus onto the output signal. I think what is needed is an HDMI device that does EDID spoofing/emulation and possibly also HDCP handshaking.
