Title:
  snd_hda_codec_hdmi (via pavucontrol or applications playing sound)
  freezes Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin freezes most of the time when trying
  to use HDMI audio (in particular from google-talkplugin, mplayer, vdr-
  sxfe, vlc, xine) up to and including the current Kernel 3.2.0-49
  without putting snd_hda_codec_hdmi on the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-
  oss.conf (thereby losing sound over the Nvidia outputs).

  Invoking pavucontrol with  snd_hda_codec_hdmi loaded almost always
  results in a crash that makes even Ctrl-Alt-SysRq inaccessible.

  Freezes also occurred with both hw and plughw devices of the Nvidia
  HDMIs under ALSA when pulseaudio had been uninstalled for testing.

  According to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1173769 #3 there
  is "a kernel issue which most likely is to happen with Nvidia
  graphics", this is also not fixed by using https://code.launchpad.net
  /~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/alsa-daily/+files/oem-audio-hda-daily-
  dkms_0.201307180553%7Eprecise1_all.deb according to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169984 #16.

  New bug as identified by David Henningsson (diwic) to have different
  causes than https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-desktop-
  tests/+bug/1169984 at #119 et seq.

  Blacklisting is the supposed fix in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1181616 and http://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2012/05/msg00110.html but not the solution if HDMI audio is needed.
