Thankyou for your bug report.

Support for Radeon HD 6000 series HDMI audio (other than the HD 6900 series) was only added in the upstream 3.5 kernel. The kernel in Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" is based on the 3.5 kernel. However this support is disabled by default by the upstream kernel developers as it causes blank screens on a lot of systems. You can enable HDMI audio by adding "radeon.audio=1" to your GRUB boot options. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting#Editing_the_GRUB_2_Menu_During_Boot for how to do this.
