<pre>Hi Emil,
I applied the patch. For reference:
[/linux-3.10.1/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/engine/disp]$ diff hdminva3.c-orig
hdminva3.c

No cigar:
aplay -D plughw:1,x test.wav # x = 3, 7, 8, _9_
NO SOUND
and
cat /proc/asound/card1/eld#3.0
monitor_present 1
eld_valid 0

COMMENTS
I'm a little skeptical for two reasons:
1. The patch (date, presentation) implies that everything was hunky-dory
until those guys on 3.10.1 did something.
Not true. The nouveau HDMI sound has _never_ worked since 3.8.0 (when I
started paying attention.)
2. I'm far from a kernel-, nouveau-, patch-, etc-. expert but common sense(?)
tells me that a mere three lines of code can't fix this problem which, again
common sense, looks a lot more intractable. If I can offer an uneducated guess
nouveau should work first on this 'eld#3.0' to see it handling an EDID properly
(like NVIDIA did - see submission) in order to have a chance at competing with
the big boys (Nvidia, Windows) in the HDMI sound arena (although an elementary
and vital requirement/capability at this day and age).
I'm attaching the new dmesg and Xorg log for this patch attempt.
Thank you for your trying to help,
