I had been using this ~/.asoundrc:
,----
| pcm.!default {
| type hw
| card HDMI
| device 3
| }
|
| ctl.!default {
| type hw
| card HDMI
| device 3
| }
`----
but now I get errors from most applications. Removing the device lines
got alsamixer to run, but audio didn't route.
My target card, as reported by aplay -l, is:
,----
| card 1: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
| Subdevices: 1/1
| Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
`----
and the mplayer syntax << -ao alsa:device=hw=1.3 >> worked. (Previously
that had required device=hw=3.1 to route the audio over the hdmi.)
The only changes here have been a steady set of software upgrades; the
hardware has been constant.
The relevant /dev files for that card are:
,----
| /dev/snd/controlC1
| /dev/snd/hwC1D0
| /dev/snd/pcmC1D3p
`----
I run Gentoo; alsa-utils is 1.0.25 (media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.25-r2).
