[Vivid] kernel 3.19.0-17 fails to show HDMI sound output

[Francois Thirioux]

I plug in HDMI through a mini DP adapter. Thus I should see internal speakers and HDMI outputs in Gnome control center but I can only see internal speakers. It's clearly a kernel issue since switching back to 3.19.0-16 solves this bug. I did no kernel tweaks. TLP is installed though.

Francois Thirioux, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page (the release names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where XY and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

I've got the same problem here. The kernel version 3.19.0-12 is ok though.

[Nicolás Lichtmaier (niqueco)]

I had this problem. I've installed linux-image-4.1.0-040100rc4-generic_4.1.0-040100rc4.201505181436_amd64.deb and now it's fixed.

RafaelFelipe.SL / Nicolás Lichtmaier, it will help immensely if you filed a new report via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug linux

Please feel free to subscribe me to it.

[AntAgna (antoinew)]

I am also experiencing this problem.
Ubuntu 15.04
MSI ProBox23 (Intel H81 chipset)
TV plugged in HDMI port

Problem happens with Kernel versions 3.19.0-17 and 3.19.0-18

HDMI audio worked before upgrading from 14.10 to 15.04
HDMI audio works if I select an older kernel (3.16.0-38)

I experience this issue since kernel version 3.19.0-18-generic with previous kernel versions sound output via HDMI/DP worked like a charm. Please take a look at the attached dmesg output maybe they are the cause or related to.
