Andrew,
Here are my notes from what worked for Phil. You have a very modern
sound card. I doubt it is the problem.

For HDMI cards run aplay -l and look for an output like this:
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
For this case, the key is card o device 3.
This setup has worked:
Audio output device: ALSA:hw:0,3
Passthrough output device: ALSA:hw:0,3
Max Audio Channels: Stereo
Upmix: Passive
Enabale AC3 to SPDIF passthrough checked
Enable DTS to SPDIF passthrough checked
Aggressive sound card buffering off
Use internal volume controls off
For mythmusic:
Utilities/Setup -> Setup -> Media Settings -> Music Settings ->
General Settings
and then set Audio device to ALSA:plughw:0,3
Optional for myth but perhaps a good or bad thing:
asound.conf:
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 0
device 3
}
