Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

When installing Arch I decided to use the proprietary Nvidia driver with my GTX 1070 and was disappointed to find that while everything sound related was detected, I couldn't hear anything at all. Before I woke up my PC from sleep I connected headphones to see if maybe the analog jacks worked and to my surprise I found that I could hear sound from my HDMI connected monitor, but not from the headphones. Thinking it had fixed itself I removed the headphones, and I no longer heard sound via HDMI.

WTF is going on here?!

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

It seems to act correctly because I have my two monitors unified in KDE's display settings (one is an HDMI cable connected to the DVI port on the video card another one goes directly to an HDMI port) and when I shut off one monitor the sound correctly goes to the other monitor.

So why does it need something plugged into the analogue jack to recognize there's sound coming through the HDMI channels?? In the 12 years of using Linux (8 or so using Arch) I've never seen something like this...

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

Are you using nvidia driver or nouveau ?

Try the other one, does it have the same behaviour ?

what is the output of pacman -Qs pulse and pacman -Qs alsa .

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

That output confirms you are using pulseaudio, not pure alsa.

Check "HDMI output configuration" section of PulseAudio/Examples wiki page

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

Before you follow that, because it's a bit dated and pulse usually recognizes these things automatically these days, can you post while playing something

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

Thanks I figured out that device 1,7 is my monitor but I also need it to switch to my TV when I turn it on which this doesn't support. It also looks like I would have to hack that script to support it as well.

Re: Audio On Plays Over HDMI When Analog Is Connected

Few things here, your default sink is set to your internal card, you might want to change that to the HDMI sink in e.g. pavucontrol so that new applications get routed to HDMI. You aren't playing anything in that output, but when you start something that produces sound, verify in pavucontrol that it plays to HDMI and not to your internal card. You will only have to do these things once per application, they will remember  whatever setting they were last on.
