It's surprising that even the recent AMD chips don't set GCAPS properly... We can set it max 8 or 16 for AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI* cases. You'd need a bit more spaces for BDL and azx_dev structs, but it's small enough and negligible. An untested patch is attached below. thanks, Takashi -- 8< -- From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Increment default stream numbers for AMD HDMI controllers It turned out that some AMD HDMI controllers still don't provide proper values in GCAP register (all zero), and the driver assigns only one stream in that case, although the connected codec chip supports more than one stream. In this patch, the default max number of streams for AMD HDMI controllers is increased to 8, which should suffice for most use cases. This is a default value that takes effect only when no GCAP register is given. The overhead by this increase is only azx_dev struct and BDL allocations, so it's negligible.
