Regarding Ubuntu 13.04: I just noticed that audio over HDMI can be made to work using a kernel from an earlier daily release. In particular, so long as I keep "radeon.audio=1" added to my GRUB boot options, HDMI audio works in Ubuntu 13.04 with the Linux 3.8.0-7-generic kernel.

I also tried kernel versions 17, 18, and 19, but none of those kernel versions worked for me with HDMI audio. I would imagine that some versions between 7 and 17 also work. Unfortunately, versions 7, 17, 18, and 19 are the only versions that I have readily available for testing.

So the problem seems to integral to the recent kernels updates.
