Bug Description
Installed the linarotv image 20120114-2 and hwpack_
After boot installed ubuntu-
HDMI connected to a Yamaha RX-V1800 audio-video-
Verified multichannel audio with xbmc.
xbmc settings:
Audio output: HDMI
Speaker Configuration: 5.1
Audio output device: Defaults (ALSA)
Passthrough output devive: hdmi (ALSA)
1. when passthrough is enabled AC3 sound in videos does not work
2. when passthrough is disabled only 2 audio channels are transmitted to the AVR (AVR display has indicators showing which channels are in use)
Crosschecked with alsa speaker-test (speaker-test -c6 -t wav) with same result:
Output correct for front left, front right and center (the latter only because the pro-logic decoder in the AVR puts sound equal to left and right onto the center) but rear sound is played with low volume on the front speakers.
Situation remains after update/dist-upgrade on Jan 21. 20:45CET.
Attaching the EDID sent by the AVR in case the audio capabilities are used by the driver (EDID is recorded with SwitchResX on a MacBook).

Andy, do you know if this is something that's supported at Panda? And if so, if it was ever tested with your current kernel tree?
