[QUOTE="alexirion, post: 759564, member: 101977"] Hello, yesterday I tested with the Realtek ATI HDMI driver, and HDMI sound was doing all the time during the test, but the HD sound formats (dts HD MA) were not working with the Realtek driver at all, so I went back to ATI 11.4. The problem I described seems more or less only appearing with my test and not in real usage of the system. Difference is, that in real usage the AV receiver is switched off 2 seconds after media portal gets the comand to hibernate. The computer still registers the disconnection of the receiver and when I resume the system the next time, it detects a newly connected receiver - maybe, then the missing of sound does not appear, but that's only speculation. The recent two ATI drivers (11.5 and 11.6) give me another HDMI sound problem. If I hibernate the system with the receiver switched off(disconnected), then turn on the receiver and resume the computer from hibernate, the sound device is still shown as disconnected and hence not working. Switching the receiver off and on again helps in this situation. I already told AMD/ATI, but the answer was only that I should use the driver, that works best for me - mmmh, very helpful, I never thought of doing this!
