Sorry, if that's wrong. First, I'm using the 1.0.16 release tarballs. They work better than the in-kernel drivers, as they survive both suspend and hibernate, whereas the kernel drivers do not. I'm eager to see audio over HDMI working on my Dell XPS M1330. I'm pretty sure that this is /not supported/ at the moment -- if this isn't the case, please stop reading, and let me know the particulars. HDMI seems to be supported noted, but mainly for the ATI chips. I'm pretty sure the m1330 has a STAC9228 setup. None of the suggested model= module parameters succeeded in getting audio over HDMI, beyond what is autodetected without any parameter specified. model=5stack seems to show a digital SPDIF device added. If there is anyway I can help the core developers get HDMI audio working, I would be glad to help. I will post all the relevant information I can think of following; please let me know if other information would be helpful. I will gladly turn on any excessive debugging options needed. I am an ALSA n00b, but I will happily do any required work that I can do from this end.
