Comment 11 for bug 412688

I don't know whether this is the same bug, for I'm running 32 bit Karmic on a socket 775 EVGA motherboard. No sound through HDMI though lspci picks up Radion HD sound card (and also on-board intel sound). Cannot run sound preferences because hangs. Alsamixer error (aplay command) messages that searching for end of file and that asoundrc may be corrupted though reloading alsa and alsa-utils say fully updated, as is radionhd driver, which also shows as first suggested in xorg.conf file.

Unfortunately, Renato Campus' temp solution above doesn't work for me. Instead it produces the following:

WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/j/.gvfs

lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/j/.gvfs
