Bug Description
No sound using ubuntu 13.04
Using ATI-Radeon graphics card (5xxx) to an HD monitor via HDMI cable.
Checked alsamixer - it lists my sound cards. it says S/PDIF is off, which is my digital output.
No the cable is not unplugged, I wouldn't get video. Mute settings have been checked.
Additionally - Ubuntu-amd-catalyst AMD proprietary drivers are failing to install for the GPU.

You need to add radeon.audio=1 to your kernel command-line. TO do this, edit the file /etc/default/grub, and add radeon.audio=1 to the GRUB_CMDLINE_ LINUX_DEFAULT line, inside the quotation. So you probably have something like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_ LINUX_DEFAULT= "splash quiet"
With your edit, it should like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_ LINUX_DEFAULT= "splash quiet radon.audio=1"
