In principle, the HDMI audio just needs to follows the video state, and it doesn't need to care actual physical connections. As long as video can go out, it's fine, audio can, too. When video is disabled (even if connected), audio can't be used as well, so it must follow to off, too. The notifier is used to follow this video state change. Practically seen, the user-space shall switch off the video accordingly upon hot unplug, then the audio notifier is sent, and the audio gets off, too. thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
