I connected my ion330 (point of view) with optical cable to my external audio decoder (onkyo). I'm running ubuntu 9.04.
Playback of videos works 100% when audio is digital (dts or dolby) but menu-sounds, mp3 and videos with analog only cannot be heard.
Any ideas?
THX a lot!

usually audio setup in xbmc is not correct.

Are you able to reproduce this problem again? I think that we should escalate it via TRAC as it's been experienced by several people.
Doing iecset is not the solution as it requires console action.

I think that a newer SVN could be more stable with this Ion systems, but I tryed to update XBMC Live to the last SVN using some tutorials I found with no sucess.

I've experienced the same problem again.
Re-Installed ubuntu and xbmc. At first Audio was working fully, all over sudden analog output not working any more.
I've honestly no idea what causes this problem.
Edit:
Again after correcting with "iecset audio 1" analog sound was gone after installing slurm and munin-node via apt-get ...

Same problem on Asus p5n7a-vm and alsa 1.0.19.
I've had no problems for ages, but at some time I lost stereo playback, only passthrough. The 'iecset audio 1' solved the issue. Thanks.

Is there a permanent fix or workaround? It's amazingly annoying. It happens about once a day.
Point Of View ion330 mainboard.
Error occurs with both ubuntu 9.04 and ubuntu mobile (live version installed).
electrical digital audio out is connected to external audio decoder (coax cable).

Since the xbmc crash I repost:
I'm still getting the analog-audio problem from time to time.
Someone has an idea to fix that long-term?
