On my 0.23.1 system with similar specs, I have the following
/etc/asoundrc:<br>
pcm.!default {<br>
type hw<br>
card 0<br>
device 3<br>
}<br>
ctl.!default {<br>
type hw<br>

}<br>

this serves no purpose with 0.24<br>

Just go into the audio settings in mythtv, and select the HDMI
port.<br>

I had to hit the "Scan for audio devices" button to get my HDMI to
show up in the list of devices. It works like a digital
passthrough; the only volume control is through the TV. Myth's
volume control has no effect. I'm guessing there's a way to get
alsa (phonon? pulse?) configured so the PCM is processed before
being sent down the wire, but it works as-is. I'm used to using my
AVR's volume control (SPDIF) in the living room so using the TV's
volume control in the bedroom comes naturally. I needed to add a
/etc/asound.conf that looks similar to Jean-Yves' asoundrc to get
the default PCM device for the system to be the HDMI out. I found
the info on how to set it up from this page:
