[mythtv-users] No sound via HDMI on my Yamaha RX-V465 A/V receiver

Hi,

I have a Yamaha RX-V465 A/V receiver connected to my TV via HDMI. The 
Yamaha does have a HDMI repeater for splitting up audio and video.
When I connect my MythDora 10 box directly to the TV via HDMI there's 
video and sound. So my setup seems to be ok.
But as soon as I connect my MythDora box to the A/V receiver via HDMI I 
do not get any sound towards the receiver. The receiver tells me that 
there's no audio input signal. But video is working fine then.

mplayer -ao alsa:device=hdmi putsomemp3here runs fine without errors. 
But without any sound.

Yamaha support says this might be a hardware related issue and I should 
apply the latest firmware for my HDMI equipment.
It's not a hardware related issue because when I boot windows on this 
box, I have video and sound via HDMI to my Yamaha.

It's an ASUS M3N78-VM with the latest NVIDIA drivers (185 I think) from 
the NVIDIA page.
Kernel is: 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64
I can not upgrade to the latest kernel because HDMI audio is not working 
then.

Thanks for any help.
Bjoern
