Hey,
I have sound over headphone plug but not over HDMI.
If I enable the alsa driver I have to force output via headphone plug and the hello_sound demo works only over headphone as well.
I don"t know how to search for the culprit.
[post edit by moderator, because it seems most people can't find this in the thread, ONLY HDMI-0 (the left and primary port) has sound, currently the right secondary HDMI-1 port does NOT!. This might be fixed in the future, but for now this is the fact.]

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
What is the display? HDMI or DVI? Is it a computer monitor?
My guess is its a computer monitor which reports its preferred mode is a DMT mode. DMT is only well defined in DVI mode, and DVI can't do audio.
Try hdmi_drive=2 in config.txt to force HDMI mode.
If not you could try
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=4
to force a CEA mode.
If none of this works, post your EDID dump (with tvservice -d)

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
It's a TV over HDMI. Should I still try the config settings?

Try them, but if it doesn't work post your EDID dump.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
Which one?
The EDID could still be useful - we can see why it is choosing DMT mode.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
Well, we are behaving as expected. Your TV reports:
HDMI:EDID found preferred DMT detail timing format: 1360x768p @ 60 Hz (39)
So the preferred mode is 1360x768 DMT. And you can't guarantee a display will show anything when a DMT mode is driven in HDMI mode (some don't). So we drive it in DVI mode, which doesn't support audio.
I think manually adding "hdmi_drive=2" is the corrrect solution.
This might be suitable for the FAQ.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
I have the same problem. I'm using hello_audio.bin. It works fine for the analog output. Monitor is a new LG IPS226, with an HDMI input and headphone output. I've tried hdmi_drive=2, still no audio. Tried hdmi_group=1 and hdmi_mode=16 and that didn't work either. I've tested the audio through the monitor with a blu-ray player (using the same HDMI cable and everything) and it does work, so the monitor is capable of doing it!

@davidm
Yes, the edid parser will be made available when it's made a bit more self contained.
Your problem is different. The preferred mode is CEA 1080p60, and the monitor reports it supports audio, so I'd expect it to work.
Are you running with anything in config.txt? You shouldn't need anything in there.
I'll forward your EDID to our hdmi guy (rpi_newbie) to see if he has any ideas.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
@dom I've got disable_overscan=1 in there. So I've tried it as follows:
disable_overscan=1
------------------------------
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_drive=2
------------------------------
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_drive=2
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16
------------------------------
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16
------------------------------
All of them behaved the same - sound on the analogue port but nothing over hdmi.
disable_overscan=1

disable_overscan=1

@davidm just to confirm hello_audio defaults to analogue.
hello_audio 1
Will output over hdmi. Are you doing that?

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
Sorry - I should make it more obvious perhaps print out where the audio is being output.
Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
I had the same problem: no sound over HDMI after connecting Raspberry Pi to my 21" HDTV (although my PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 worked just fine). As stated above, I too had to edit the config.txt file and add the following line:
hdmi_drive=2
Config.txt is located in /boot and I edited it by loading up LXTerminal and using the following command line:
$ sudo nano /boot/config.txt
After adding the "hdmi_drive=2" line at the bottom, I typed ctrl-o to write the changes and ctrl-x to exit the nano text editor. I rebooted and the HDMI sound finally worked!

Hi, I"m having issues with sound through my HDMI connected TV. I"m getting nothing! I"ve tried setting the config directly base on the posts I"ve seen here but nothing happens. I"ve run tvservice and the output log is attached

OK, it works fine when I pass the right arguments to the binary, and remove all hdmi options from config.txt. Sorry for the noise

I think I should be getting full HD (1080p) but I am not. I also don't have sound over HDMI. The TV keeps defulting to 1360x768 resolution and registers the Raspberry Pi as a DVI device. Can you please help. Where is edid.dat located, so that I can send it to you?

Sony BX300, no sound over HDMI on a standard Debian install.
I had sound coming from the analogue jack, but no sound over HDMI, however, this fixed it for me.
Thanks again.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
This issue is still affecting me. I've tried quite a few recent builds, but only one fairly old build ever gave me the DTS and DD output. I'm not sure what version that would have been but I would have thought somewhere around 10990 and 11100 ish.
Since somehting like 11310 ish I have not had any passthrough audio. I guess this would be about the point that the values from the tvservice started being used, rather than just user configuration?
My EDID is available here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2abz89xvuocoags/edid.dmp
It's from a Sony STR-DH810 amp, which is plugged into a Sony KDL-40W4500.
I don't recall where I found it, however, I am now using a modified start.elf, and then I have a config.txt with the line:
hdmi_force_edid_audio=1
This solves the issue for me, and then the throughput works fine -this makes the tvservice think I can everything. Without this trick when I run the TVService it just says I have 8 channels of PCM audio.
I have tried the information about to see if I can get it to work the hdmi_mode and hdmi_group settings, but couldn't seem to get it to work, although I'm not certain I tried every combination.
Hopefully you can help me here.
Perhaps it would possible to make the force edid audio option something in the standard build as a workaround for people in my situation? Alternatively perhaps as others have suggested we could have it initally set based on the tvservice values, but then later make it possible to override these values?
Thanks!
Since somehting like 11310 ish I have not had any passthrough audio. I guess this would be about the point that the values from the tvservice started being used, rather than just user configuration?
My EDID is available here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2abz89xvuocoags/edid.dmp
It's from a Sony STR-DH810 amp, which is plugged into a Sony KDL-40W4500.
I don't recall where I found it, however, I am now using a modified start.elf, and then I have a config.txt with the line:
hdmi_force_edid_audio=1

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
Bump....because I can't PM, and not sure anyone, or specifically Dom is reading this - but if I'm not the only one suffering then I think this could add value to many people.

Re: No sound over HDMI [solved]
What's the problem? The hdmi_force_edid_audio option has been supported in official start.elf on github for a coupld of weeks.hearnia_2k wrote:Bump....because I can't PM, and not sure anyone, or specifically Dom is reading this - but if I'm not the only one suffering then I think this could add value to many people.
