Allright, some heart-warming update on my side....
I manually uninstalled the intrepid ibex 8.10 NVIDIA 177 driver and
downloaded and installed the 180.08 one from NVIDIA (pkg2.run just to be
on the safe side)
Now HDMI Audio works on my HP Pavilion dv9343eu !!!!
It is even funnier, for unlike in Windows, where I must choose between
my laptop's loudspeakers or the Digital Conection for Audio Output, in
ubuntu with Nvidia 180.08 drivers, both my TV and my loudspeakers put
out sound and their volume's are independant from each other....
I guess I should paste in a lot of specs, but I don't really know
which.... here go the basic ones :

Please let me know how I can provide more useful info....
P.S: I am having nonetheless some trouble with the screen resolution
using the HDMI connection.... If I use nvidia-settings and set the
displays as Separate X screens, on my larger 1920x1080 TV display I only
get a 1440x900 desktop space (even though the desktop background centers
itself correctly)... in other words, I get black bars on the right and
bottom of my TV display. Even odder, my mouse cursor is shown when
hovering over these black areas..... any ideas?
