I am no longer having an issue with IEC958 output in Karmic Koala. I just have to go to the Pulseaudio settings and select digital output, and it starts outputting digital sound via my optical out jack.
@Fuss: I am not seeing any HDMI audio option in Pulseaudio, or in alsamixer, so I'm not sure what's up with that. I have a Nvidia video card and the closed Nvidia driver installed and there is no setting for HDMI audio that I can see. -- digital audio optical out (IEC958) will not unmute/turn on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
