For this particular machine I have the onboard sound going
to one of the inputs of my receiver, while the hdmi output
goes to an hdmi input of the same receiver. I was afraid
setting the default audio out to the hdmi would disrupt
all the uses I had programmed for onboard output.

I decided that I only invoked mplayer under X in
a few places so it was best for me to just include
-ao alsa:device=hw=1.7
in those scripts.

It now seems so simple to get hdmi sound running
I am ashamed it took me several months of off/on
work. A tribute to all who helped me and the OP
who started this thread.

Thanks.
