   I’m using 10.08 svn32416 on a Revo 1600 with 2 gig of ram connected via HDMI to my TV. Navigation sounds come through fine, as do mp3 and just about everything except when I play an mkv file. When I go to play an mkv the video plays fine, but I hear no sound. When I hit volume up or down I see the little popup in the upper right saying that the audio is being passed through. In the audio output screen (shown in the picture above) I have HDMI selected for Audio Output, Audio Output Device, and Passthrough output device. I’ve tried various settings for the “XXX capable receiver” settings with no success.

   Will this fix work on a Revo, or is there another options line I should be using?

   I worked for me. Video files with MP3 audi works, but video files with AC3 audio dont’ work, sounds noise when plays them.

   Same here. AVIs all seem to work, MKVs all seem to play nasty noise.

   Actually, I now have it working perfectly on my ZBOX HD-ID11 using the above instructions, with one small change. My HDMI is plugged into a plain stereo TV. When I uncheck AC3 and DTS and use 2.0 instead of 5.1, it works perfectly! AVIs and MKVs are playing nicely. If I have 5.1 with AC3 and DTS checked, I get noise for MKVs.
