Zotac IONITX sound over HDMI problems [solved]

More minor problems... I can't get the onboard sound via HDMI to work on this new machine.  I installed ALSA and configured it as per the wiki, alsamixer shows the proper levels and unmuted.  I tried the following test, but got no sound:

# aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav

$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: ALC662 Analog [ALC662 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 1: ALC662 Digital [ALC662 Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Thought are welcomed

EDIT: Fix was to make /etc/asound.conf containing the info that corresponds to the output above.  Thanks to antis.

pcm.!default {
        type hw
        card 0 
        device 3
}
 
ctl.!default {
        type hw
        card 0 
}

Have you solved this issue?

Because I'm having the same problem with my Asus AT3N7A-I motherboard.

Re: Zotac IONITX sound over HDMI problems [solved]

I have sound over hdmi working in my xbmc setup.
All I did was to put the following in /etc/asound.conf

pcm.!default {
        type hw
        card 0 
        device 3
}
 
ctl.!default {
        type hw
        card 0 
}
