Hi there,

my UP board runs perfectly Ubuntu 18.04. I did install as well the fix for file /etc/pulse/default.pa like given as hint in the wiki.

However, when I open settings of Ubuntu and go to "Sound" I have still no device listed there. I try to get the Audio via the HDMI cable.

I'm sure you got that working. So those of you: could you pls help and tell me what's needed??
Thx in advance!!

    Hi @toko789 ,

    You could check your HDMI devices here:
    $ dmesg | grep HDMI
    or
    $ sudo aplay -l

    hey ccalde, thx very much for you reaction.

    dmesg:

    root@up:~# dmesg | grep HDMI
    [    0.048318] ACPI: Added _OSI(Linux-Lenovo-NV-HDMI-Audio)
    [    5.094702] input: Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio HDMI/DP,pcm=0 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/hdmi-lpe-audio/sound/card0/input5
    [    5.101850] input: Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio HDMI/DP,pcm=1 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/hdmi-lpe-audio/sound/card0/input6
    [    5.102018] input: Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio HDMI/DP,pcm=2 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/hdmi-lpe-audio/sound/card0/input7
    

    however at the end I get as well
    [ 4.421692] [drm] HDaudio controller not detected, using LPE audio instead

    and tons of lines like:
    Audio Port: ASoC: no backend DAIs enabled for Audio Port

    and aplay lists:
    root@up:~# aplay -l
    **** Liste der Hardware-Geräte (PLAYBACK) ****
    Karte 0: Audio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio], Gerät 0: HdmiLpeAudio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio]
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0
    Karte 0: Audio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio], Gerät 1: HdmiLpeAudio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio]
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0
    Karte 0: Audio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio], Gerät 2: HdmiLpeAudio [Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio]
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0
    Karte 1: bytchtnocodec [bytcht-nocodec], Gerät 0: Audio () []
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0

    ) []
    Sub-Geräte: 1/1
    Sub-Gerät #0: subdevice #0

    so there are devices listed and as well errors, but however in ubuntu 18.04 sound settings I still have none listed, and , well what's really the problem: I get no sound out of HDMI (BIOS settings are correct... I had before ubilinux installed on same board where sound did work flawlessly). Hope anybody finds any hint in this output?

    Can you check in the BIOS if you have the boot settings for Windows or Linux/Android?

    Also, just in case, try to reset the BIOS settings to default and then try again.

    Have you rechecked all the connections?
