I have a ACER Aspire REVO with NVIDIA ION, running Ubuntu Karmic Kaola, with pulseaudio installed.
It is connected to a Denon AV Receiver via HDMI. My problem is that i have only stereo sound output over HDMI.
It is possible to get surround working over HDMI ? Do I have to look into alsa to get this working or is this a pulseaudio issue ?
thanks in advance for you insights !
