This typically happens if you a) Do not have permission to load the audio devices (this can happen if you use su after logging in to a graphical session) or b) Some other application is "hogging" the devices and thus we cannot access them. I can tell this as PA has loaded an automatic dummy device in place of any real hardware. Perhaps you restarted PA while some other application was running or perhaps you ran the command as root or similar when your user had the device open as your user. Please: 1. Ensure you are not using padevchooser (just remove it from your system as it messes up the client configuration) 2. Do a fresh reboot. 3. Select the HDMI device in gnome-volume-control. 4. Play some sound. If it all works, then great. If not, please grab pacmd list again and resend it.
