Ubuntu 10.10 HDMI audio not working NVidia GeForce 8200

Asked by Bob Smith

New install of Ubuntu 10.10
HDMI audio is not working
ASUS A3N78-VM board with NiVidia GeForce 8200 GPU
Build is HTPC
Newest ALSA and NVidia drivers installed
Nothing muted

Is there an answer out there?? Have installed & rebooted so any times it's reminding me of Windows!!!

Results of bash alsa-info.sh --stdout

After 5 hours finally got it working.

Just don't know exactly how I did it, because I did so many things.

1) Latest NVidia drivers
2) ALSA module that agrees with kernal
3) Updated Pulse
4) ALSA mixer - F6 & select correct HDMI device
5) Sound Settings select HDMI & make sure nothing is muted and all volumes are up.

What a hassle!!!
