[asterisk-users] hdmi an console dsp

[Jerry Geis]

I am trying to connect audio through HDMI on a config.
aplay - l gives:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: VT1708B Analog [VT1708B Analog]
  Subdevices: 2/2
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  Subdevice #1: subdevice #1
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0


So I change my alsa.conf file to:
; To set which ALSA device to use, change this parameter
input_device=hw:0,3
output_device=hw:0,3

When starting asterisk I get:
^[[1;30;40m  == ^[[0;37;40mParsing '/etc/asterisk/alsa.conf': Found

^[[1;30;40m  == ^[[0;37;40mTurn off ALSA support by adding 
'noload=chan_alsa.so' in /etc/asterisk/modules.conf


How do I tell it to use HDMI?

If I comment out the input_device and output_device in alsa.conf (the 
default), and I change the /etc/asound.conf to point to device 3.
I get this error:

^[[1;30;40m  == ^[[0;37;40mParsing '/etc/asterisk/alsa.conf': Found

Any ideas?
