So, this is driving me nuts and I'm convinced I'm just missing something trivial. Essentially, I have a htpc with a clean install of Fedora 17 that serves 3 purposes:
1. mythtv frontend for video/audio (from github... dependencies through yum) through gt520 hdmi for the tv/movie piece
2. squeezeslave (from sourceforge) for audio through onboard intel audio for the mp3 piece
3. google chrome with flash for youtube and espn3
1 and 2 work flawlessly. 3 is where the problem is (sound never gets played) and it really makes no sense to me since 1 and 2 obviously prove those devices are fine but they go after the device directly, or in another method than the way fedora 17 goes after the audio. I can actually see my receiver (htpc is connected to onkyo receiver via hdmi) thinking when initially doing speaker-test or aplay, but ultimately no sound plays. Just services to give me hope/frustrate me since it seems like it is trying to get the signal out but a connection isn't being made.
But, this is no issue with #1 and #2. #1 is through the same hdmi connection and #2 is through a stereo to rca cable.
Any ideas what my problem is?
Some info:
aplay -l output

Mentionables:
- I've tried adding 'load-module module-alsa-sink device=hdmi:NVidia' to /etc/pulse/default.pa... no change.
- Neither aplay -D or speaker-test -D with plughw:1,7 work... they execute but there's no sound that gets played
- nvidia driver 304.51
I'm not married to fedora 17 either and am more than willing to wipe the drive and start with another distro that's known to be working.
Thanks in advance.
