Mi apologies, I'm late to this thread, although I think I understand now; the
goal being to get HDMI audio output working, and nothing else for the moment.
Searching around doesn't seem to indicate that anyone has HDMI audio working
with their ION boards unfortunately. Although, as far as I know, most NVidia
boards do not include a standalone audio controller for HDMI out; I cannot seem
to figure out if this is the case with ION or not. If it is, great; odds are
that the latest NV HDMI codec driver will support the controller. If not, the
next best option would be to figure out what audio chip is being used (likely in
this case ALC888), and assume that HDMI audio is provided via an S/PDIF header.
Jose, have you tested each of the subdevices individually with MPlayer, to see
if any of them produce any output?
