This all looks good, the driver is properly compiled and installed. You 
are most probably hitting a driver bug.

That is expected, the HDMI port is disabled by default, because the code 
is not robust enough. You need to have the following line in your X conf 
to enable it :
Option "ActiveDevice" "DFP"
The HDMI output will likely not work properly though.

Maybe a dump of the registers could help diagnosing the issue. Could you 
please build the driver with --enable-viaregtool added to the autogen.sh 
call ?
Once this is done, please start the X server and send the output of  the 
following command :
sudo via_regs_dump -dpm
