imx6 hdmi audio output problem

[lixiaohui]

In my android-jb4.3 + imx6dl  sabresd board,  hdmi audio can't be output when conneted with TV using hdmi cable.

I try my best to find out the reason for several days ,but haven't successed.

these are my result after  investigation.

1: connect this TV with another board using hdmi cable, this TV can work at 1080p and also i can hear audio sound from it.

2: connect this  hdmi TV with our sabresd board, this TV can work at 480P, also in this videomode ,we can hear hdmi sound. but when making it work at >480P (720P or 1080P), the video output is good , but can't hear any sound from TV.

also, the detail timming of 720P and 480P i set are supported by this TV's edid. in other words , every trying, our borad can read the edid information from this TV sucessfully. 

so i wonder why at high resolution（720P），hdmi audio can't be outputed ？

on our imx6 platform, we havn't modify the hardware(imx6 sabresd) and software(imx6 android jb4.3) about hdmi.  but from android_jb4.3_1.1.0-ga Release_Notes, hdmi audio can be supported.

Many thanks if anybody can help me or give me some suggestions on this problem.

i have make progress on this investigation through a whole day.

i have found when change hdmi_core_data.disp_id from 1 to 0,  i can all hear sound from TV whenever hdmi display mode is 480p, 720p or 1080p. 

but change hdmi_core_data.disp_id from 0 to 1, i can hear sound from TV only when hdmi display mode is 480p. At 720P or 1080p, not hear any sound from TV.

it is the difference between  DI 0 and DI 1 which lead to this hdmi audio problem.

i can't understand the reason. 

can anybody explain this ,  thanks.

hdimi audio problem has been resolved.  After i remove CONFIG_MX6_CLK_FOR_BOOTUI_TRANS from arch/arm/configs/imx6_android_defconfig, then althrogh hdmi_core_data.disp_id is 1, it can output hdmi audio whenever hdmi display mode is 480p, 720p or 1080p. 

thank you for your reply.
