[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1428121@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

New ASRock Z97 Extreme 6 motherboard with an Intel i7 4790S and an
Nvidia GTX 650.

Host uses Intel IGD for video and HDMI audio out.

When I pass kernel flags 'intel_iommu=on' or 'intel_iommu=on,igfx_on'
HDMI audio no longer functions although the device and modules seem to
load and I cannot locate any error messages.  In this configuration
IOMMU functions as expected and I can successfully pass the Nvidia card
through to a KVM guest using VFIO.

As per this
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1223840) bug
report and the linked bugzilla thread I attempted to use kernel flag
'intel_iommu=on,igfx_off'.  This resolves the HDMI audio out but breaks
IOMMU as in VGA pass through generates DMA errors.

I'm running from a clean installation of 14.10 with no modifications to
the kernel or kvm, qemu, libvirt or virt-manager.

In either scenario above the analogue audio out continues to function, I
haven't tested the optical out as I have no hardware to do so.
