Hi, I'm trying to make HDMI audio work. So far I've been able to make almost everything work, but Flash is still giving me headaches. I cannot make it play on HDMI, when I open a video on youtube sound comes out from my laptop's speakers. I googled around but I didn't find any useful hint on how to configure Flash audio on HDMI. My system is a Vaio VGN-SR21M laptop with HD3470 and Catalyst 11.8.
Can anyone please help me? Thanks.

OK, as usual I found the answer right after opening this thread...
According to post #6 here:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions … rd-809773/
Flash outputs only on default alsa device, so if I want HDMI output I have to set my HDMI card as default by putting this in ~/.asoundrc:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 1
device 3
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 1
device 3
}
(where card 1 device 3 stands for my HDMI audio card as given by aplay -l) and restart alsa by typing sudo /etc/rc.d/alsa force-restart.
The annoying thing is that now Flash sound will work ONLY on HDMI, so when I disconnect my TV I have to delete or modify .asoundrc, restart alsa and so on... Really there's not a smarter way to tell Flash where to send sound?
