Just curious if this is a bug at all or a bug in the nvidia drivers or a bug in alsa: I got a GeForce GT 430 card which happens to have HDMI output. Since the nouveau drivers only worked in 2D on this card (and not very well at that), I installed the nvidia binary drivers from rpmfusion.org (I'm running fedora 15 64 bit). That fixed the video, but the audio via the internal NVidia CK804 on the motherboard totally ceased functioning. No amount of fiddling control panels or alsamixers or anything could coax any sound from the onboard sound anymore. It still showed up, and I could set it as the default, but it would never generate any sound. I've certainly had two separate sound cards in a system with no conflicts before, so I wondered why the video card trumped the motherboard in this case. Fortunately, I found this wonderfully obscure gimmick: http://analogbit.com/fix_nvidia_edid and was able to convince the video card that the TV had no audio support, so it stopped trying to setup the HDMI audio. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
