+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #61981 +++ I think I sent my original bug report to the wrong queue. Simply this system has been configured to use HDMI audio and on this kernel there is no output. I did try on 3.12-rc1 but I had problems booting the system which have been fixed with 3.12-rc2. The system works on 3.11.1 with a hand crafted patch of the early HDMI audio work intended for 3.12 so I know the basic setup works. Since the original bug report I have been attempting to bisect the problem to identify the commit that caused my system to stop working on the 3.12 rc's. Here is my bisect log as you can see the only good commit for me is Alex's please advise: author Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com> 2013-07-31 20:51:33 (GMT) committer Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com> 2013-08-30 20:30:45 (GMT) commit b530602fd4625f763344e455902981b22f85f609 (patch) tree fb1c932b2bf74b76fbbdc198d527a698088500c2 parent a4d39e68949f5b4f7b426be63782b421018f741a (diff) (3.11.0-rc7-00066-gb530602) git bisect start # bad: [4a10c2ac2f368583138b774ca41fac4207911983] Linux 3.12-rc2 git bisect bad 4a10c2ac2f368583138b774ca41fac4207911983 # good: [b530602fd4625f763344e455902981b22f85f609] drm/radeon: add audio support for DCE6/8 GPUs (v12) git bisect good b530602fd4625f763344e455902981b22f85f609 # bad: [57d730924d5cc2c3e280af16a9306587c3a511db] Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip git bisect bad 57d730924d5cc2c3e280af16a9306587c3a511db # bad: [40031da445fb4d269af9c7c445b2adf674f171e7] Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm git bisect bad 40031da445fb4d269af9c7c445b2adf674f171e7 # bad: [542a086ac72fb193cbc1b996963a572269e57743] Merge tag 'driver-core-3.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core git bisect bad 542a086ac72fb193cbc1b996963a572269e57743 # bad: [1ccfd5eaf8f0135a0ce030728d1739e0eea4e3ce] Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux git bisect bad 1ccfd5eaf8f0135a0ce030728d1739e0eea4e3ce # bad: [578739259875a93b1869d25cdf4a8bd963b7d0a7] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/txx9' into spi-next git bisect bad 578739259875a93b1869d25cdf4a8bd963b7d0a7 # bad: [45bb5065e11cd770fcf4afe9714ccea671333766] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/octeon' into spi-next git bisect bad 45bb5065e11cd770fcf4afe9714ccea671333766 # bad: [96b1a28d65bfc942d84fb612b7f33279390b8ba4] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/doc' into spi-next git bisect bad 96b1a28d65bfc942d84fb612b7f33279390b8ba4 # bad: [b29bc3df37afa440290f4b8e50cf5dce429ce22f] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/bitbang' into spi-next git bisect bad b29bc3df37afa440290f4b8e50cf5dce429ce22f # bad: [c3dbe2b76a835fb4b2633645b0c49359b49eb128] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/bcm2835' into spi-next git bisect bad c3dbe2b76a835fb4b2633645b0c49359b49eb128 # bad: [5264af0ca696e19b492f31837a570787f6fd399b] Merge remote-tracking branch 'spi/topic/atmel' into spi-next git bisect bad 5264af0ca696e19b492f31837a570787f6fd399b # bad: [2de024b766bb9e31c357f70c6344d1107f38ce1a] spi/atmel: Fix format specifier warnings git bisect bad 2de024b766bb9e31c357f70c6344d1107f38ce1a # bad: [6c07ef298ac2a05e14cdb059169a78c74badf056] spi/atmel: Annotate lock/unlock functions git bisect bad 6c07ef298ac2a05e14cdb059169a78c74badf056 # bad: [dfec4a6e42286dacc733c7e6be43606a5622ca58] spi: atmel: prepare clk before calling enable git bisect bad dfec4a6e42286dacc733c7e6be43606a5622ca58dfec4a6e42286dacc733c7e6be43606a5622ca58 is the first bad commit commit dfec4a6e42286dacc733c7e6be43606a5622ca58 Author: Boris BREZILLON <b.brezillon@overkiz.com> Date: Tue Jul 16 17:16:22 2013 +0200 spi: atmel: prepare clk before calling enable Replace clk_enable/disable with clk_prepare_enable/disable_unprepare to avoid common clk framework warnings.

In 3.12, hdmi audio is exposed as a connector property so you can enable audio on the fly rather than needing to pass radeon.audio=1 to force it on. E.g., xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio auto

Removed radeon.audio=1 from boot file and rebuilt with latest Aruba/Tahiti firmware resulted in xrandr sucessfully enabling audio and the system appears stable (power managment also enabled). thanks.
