It'll be the wonky USB audio, I think--audio1. `audio0' is the HDMI which'll work because there're no issues to be seen with either the hdaudio(4) driver or with i915drmkms.How can you tell which one outputs via HDMI? Is it just that HDMI audio, if present, will always be hdaudio/hdafg, so assuming the hardware has HDMI audio it has to be audio0, or is there more to it?
Well, HDMI is digital output (both audio and video in frames), so you'd need an exotic converter to output analog audio to std. HP/speaker jacks--which is what I presume your jacks are? Also, why provide USB audio too if HDMI audio is being diverted? No, I don't anything this complicated is going on. It'll be HDMI audio data at the HDMI jack, and the USB audio connected to your std. HP/spkr jack(s). -RVP
