Can you confirm that it also gives no EDID when plugged into another
machine?  I don't see evidence via google that other people have a
problem with the monitor - and in this day and age, a monitor missing
all EDID is just completely perverse, especially if it has a HDMI
socket.  (EDID is basically a requirement for HDMI, it isn't optional.)

I wonder if your board is missing something - maybe the 5V supply to
the HDMI socket is missing (which is a requirement in the HDMI spec
for the DDC bus to be usable.)
