           Summary: no sound via HDMI for Radeon 6850 mesa driver
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified

          Reporter: jasontheparamedic at hotmail.com
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: NEW

           Product: Mesa

Greetings, this is my first bug report so I apologize if it is placed in the
wrong section.  I am unable to get sound via HDMI cable using the open source
driver for my Radeon 6850.  I have (X)ubuntu 13.04 32bit system, using mesa
9.2, as provided by the xorg-edgers ppa, using all appropriate updates as
passed downstream by the ppa.  Using the FGLRX driver does fix the sound issue
along with providing a high level of hardware acceleration, but it does cripple
me being able to play on some emulators due to the well-known buggy nature of
the FGLRX driver.  I already made a report on the askubuntu.com forums, but so
far there has been no response.  My motherboard's native sound card is broken,
so currently I have my computer speakers plugged into the HD monitor, hence
HDMI sound is my only choice at this time.  Here is a link to my askubuntu
question (so as to avoid duplication of effort with providing info).

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
