The card shown as "Generic" is actually yet another AMD HDMI chip.
And this should work without the snooping.  Unless you hear any
audible problems, no reason to fix this one.

Another "HDA ATI HDMI" one is tied with a different graphics unit.
I don't know what hardware configuration you have.  Do you have
multiple AMD graphics cards?  Basically each HDMI audio entry is tied
with the dedicated graphics chip (board).  You wanted to play back via
this HDMI and it didn't work?
