The HDMI audio works fine in Window 7, so I know all the hardware is OK. After booting into Ubuntu 10.10 (with updates applied) and selecting HDA NVidia in sound preferences, I get no sound from any program. aplay -l lists 4 devices for card 1: 3, 7, 8, 9. I can get sound by running "aplay -D plughw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav" but never the first time. To get this command to produce sound I first have to run "aplay -D plughw:1,8 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav". This produces a click sound in the speakers, after which I can get sound from "aplay -D plughw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav". The sound is clear and undistorted. (I'm assuming this is because the alsa driver isn't initializing the card properly.) After I perform the above steps to trick the card into working, I can usually select the card (HDA NVidia) in sound preferences and get badly distorted sound through any program. It seems like there are two problems here: the card isn't initializing properly, and after it has been initialized pulseaudio can't play audio through it properly (as evidenced by the bad distortion.)
