Hi Florian,

I'm using vlc backend.

I have 2 "sound cards". Internal Audio Digital Stereo (IEC958) and High 
Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI). (The second one, I guess, is 
the one related to the HDMI output of the graphic card).

The default audio playback device is the first one (IEC958).

No matter what I'm selecting in the tab "Device preference" or any option of 
the tab "Audio Hardware Setup", no sound is getting out when I press the "test 
buttons".

Other applications like mplayer, paplay are working fine. The sound is getting 
out from the first card (IEC958).

You'll find here under, the result of the commands.

Thanks for you help,

Fred.
