Hi!
I'm having an issue with my HTPC computer. I was using it with WBMC, and
using a HDMI cable to output the video and audio from my computer to the TV.
When I first installed Debian a year ago I have some problems ([1]),but
them was solved using a ~/.asoundrc configuration file.
I was happy with my computer, but a few days ago I realized that my
Debian Sid become a little outdated, when I try to install the
experimental version of XBMC.
Before upgrading XBMC I decided to upgrade the whole system (around 300
packages, only upgrade, not dist-upgrade). The upgrade process was fine
and I rebooted the computer.
The surprise comes when I try to use my XBMC installation and the sound
is not working at all. No errors are shown, the configuration file is in
its place. I checked the "mute" checkboxes on my alsaconfig, and all
appears to be ok.
I don't know where to start to look for a solution.
Anybody knows what can be wrong? Anybody had a similar problem? Thanks
in advance
