[pulseaudio-discuss] Issue with multiple hdmi codecs in radeonhd, hacked to work

Revision ID 3 and later (0x100300 as reported by procfs codec#X) have
support for providing more information than the previous revisions (but
only if supported by the display driver).

manufacture_id        0x0
product_id        0x0
port_id            0x0

you have to find out those values return by hda_codec_read
ATI_VERB_GET_SINK_INFO_DATA as your codec are revision 3 and your graphic
driver got the product_id, manufacture_id, port_id

Do those SAD in EDID in xorg.log  match with the specification of your
Denon HDMI receiver ?

seem emulated ELD 's max bitrate are different from those in SAD of EDID


Do AC3 or DTS passthrough  hdmi work (using alsa and pulseaudio) or not ?

Do your Denon HDMI receiver support 7.1 ?

    Profiles:
        output:hdmi-stereo: Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (sinks: 1,
sources: 0, priority: 400)
        output:hdmi-surround: Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output (sinks: 1,
sources: 0, priority: 3300)
        output:hdmi-stereo-extra1: Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (sinks: 1,
sources: 0, priority: 200)
        output:hdmi-surround-extra1: Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output
(sinks: 1, sources: 0, priority: 3100)
        output:hdmi-stereo-extra2: Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (sinks: 1,
sources: 0, priority: 200)
        output:hdmi-surround-extra2: Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output
(sinks: 1, sources: 0, priority: 3100)
        output:hdmi-stereo-extra3: Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (sinks: 1,

        output:hdmi-surround-extra3: Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output
(sinks: 1, sources: 0, priority: 3100)

seem no 7.1 in pulseaudio ?

Do pulseaudio select the first HDMI as active port the default sink ?

I am not sure.

seem no output of pactl stat

you may comment the last three hdmi devices until monitor_presence bug is
fixed
