Hi Guys,
I started having this problem few days ago, not sure what caused it.
first my setup:
mac mini 6.1 (late 2012) running debian x64 - kernel 3.8.10
denon 4311 avr, connected via HDMI
5.0 speaker setup
Previous to a few days ago, when I am just playing mp3 tracks I will use mplayer and it worked fine. Now it doesn't. On the Denon I can see the 2channel light up when I use mplayer, but no sound.
Interesting I also have mythtv on this box, and when i watch TV it works fine (with both 2ch and DolbyDigital sources) - again the denon will say either 2ch or DD.
I have tried different players (mpg123, instead of mplayer), alsamixer says the channels arn't muted (and if I mute them, the denon stops reporting a signal source)
It almost looks like the Denon is at fault, but mythtv can play 2ch fine, and the denon lights up the exact same between mythtv and mplayer.
If I try other devices (aplay below) the denon doesn't light up at all.. So 0,8 is the right one, besides its been working for months..
previous working asoundrc:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "digital-hw"
}
pcm.digital-hw {
type hw
card 0
device 8
}
ctl.digital-hw {
type hw
card 0
}
root@crystal:~# aplay -l

card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 8: HDMI 2 [HDMI 2]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
At the moment this is my work around asoundrc (this causes the denon to see a 5.0 signal :
pcm.raw {
type plug
slave {
pcm "digital-hw"
channels 8
}
}
pcm.digital-hw {
type hw
card 0
device 8
}
Any ideas?
Regards
D.
