HDMI and Sound

[ED Nurse]

I have Raspbian as my OS. I am connected to a Samsung 32" LCD TV via an HDMI.

I have successfully modified config.txt to set up the display as 720p and made the necessary changes to force audio output to HDMI (hdmi_drive=2).


After manually typing the line to set the mixer output to HDMI

sudo amixer cset numid=3 2

If I select the Front_Center file to be output, there is a clicking followed by part of word, this is more apparent if I select Noise.wav, there is a period of clicks followed by 'white' noise.


If I change the audio output destination to be the analogue with headphones by

sudo amixer cset numid=3 1

then I get the complete sentence from Front_Center or the complete 'white' noise.

However there is no sound from Scratch.

I think there has been a firmware fix since Raspbian/Wheezy for the start of HDMI audio being lost. Can you try an update:

I tried the update and I still see the same problem on one of my televisions. I think the audio still has some work to go.
