From your alsa-info.sh output: !!Aplay/Arecord output !!------------ [ ... ] card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 You should be able to use hw:0,3 to output to the HDMI. aplay -L does not list it because the device is just not defined in your alsa-lib. Probably alsa-lib 1.0.18a would list it.
