Bug Description

Was using Raring 13.04 with kernel 3.8.0-17 with NVIDIA HDMI Audio via the NVIDIA 319.12 drivers. When upgrading to 3.8.0-18, HDMI is no longer listed within Sound Settings or pavucontrol (only item listed with Dummy.) Switched over to the ubuntu nividia-current driver, same problem. Rolled back to 3.8.0-17 and HDMI audio again works correctly. What files should I attach to assist with this? I can roll back/fourth between the two to get anything required.

I had to blacklist kernel module 'snd-hda-codec-hdmi' due to kernel BUG on boot somewhere in this module's code. Happened on two very different computers, both using nvidia proprietary driver (310- or 313-series). Started after upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04, first kernel used was 3.8.0-18 (now on 3.8.0-19). Booting fails miserably if the bug triggers.

This kernel also fixes the problem:

Better than 3.9 because it won't break applications that is missing support for 3.9, for example VirtualBox.

There was an error about linuxheader 3.8.8-030808
However, HDMI audio worked.
update-manager wanted to remove it. When I allowed the "Partial Upgrade" it did remove whatever was offending.
I did that and re-booted.

Upgraded to 3.8.8 and HDMI audio is working fine.

If using the NVIDIA downloaded drivers with Raring and the 3.8.8 kernel, you may need to:
export IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1
or else it may complain of a GCC mismatch.

Dumping what I know, hoping it will help.
Additions were made to sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c in 3.8.0-18, and removing them solves the problem. As I can see, they are based on 3.9-rc*, but it seems that upstream some other additions were made.
I added a patch to better illustrate what's causing the problem, it's not meant to be a solution.

The Ubuntu mainline kernel builds 3.8.0, 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.6, and 3.8.8 all work fine for HDMI audio, as does Ubuntu 3.8.0-17-generic.

I've also been having the same problem (no HDMI audio) with a Radeon HD 6670 beginning with the Ubuntu 3.8.0-18 kernel. I can confirm that HDMI audio DOES work in Ubuntu 13.04 with my Radeon HD 6670 in combination with the following mainline kernels: 3.8.0, 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.6, and 3.8.8.

Interesting to note that HDMI audio works with mainline 3.8.6 and mainline 3.8.8, but not with Ubuntu 3.8.0-18 or Ubuntu 3.8.0-19, which are based on mainline 3.8.6 and mainline 3.8.8, respectively. See http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/info/kernel-version-map.html

I'll also add that, at least for me, lots of other problems (including inability to mirror monitors) are present with 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.6, and 3.8.8. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1167301 But most everything seems to be working well with mainline 3.8.0 and Ubuntu 3.8.0-7. So for me, mainline 3.8.0 and Ubuntu 3.8.0-7 are my only current options.

1- Download & Install this Package: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/alsa-daily/+packages, then Reboot
2- Go to "Sound Settings", you should now see your hdmi device listed, select it and your done.

Hi, I have a Nvidia GT430 with GF108 Controller on a Zotac Z68ITX-B-E and have not had HDMI sound since I upgraded from Precise. Dummy Audio only available.

After following saleh-awal's advice (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169984/comments/16), The problem is now fixed.

Steps performed:

~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily
~$ sudo apt-get update
~$ sudo apt-get install oem-audio-hda-daily-dkms

Reboot.
Thanks.
