This bug needs to be moved from the alsa-driver/pulseaudio thread and moved to either nouveau or nvidia packages.
The issue why this is not fixed as far as I can figure out is because the address modified with the setpci command is not documented by nvidia and thus cannot be added to the official drivers. You do not want to have any dirty hacks that are based on rumours/forum-posts only in production-level drivers. as a side note: #19+#24 is still needed on ubuntu 18.04 for the audio device to show up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377653 Title: HDMI sound output not detected / NVIDIA optimus laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1377653/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
