No sound via HDMI 9 rc2

[CJ Devola]

I installed without issue with read and write during install process. Have no sound. Searching the net found out some commands. I opened up terminal window type su and cat /proc/asound/cards found mine is c0 which is onboard. Then I activated sound using the following commands: alsa_amixer -c0 set 'IEC958',0 on alsa_amixer -c0 set 'IEC958',1 on .alsa_amixer -c0 set 'IEC958',2 on alsa_amixer -c0 set 'IEC958',3 on then I tested with a wav file to find the correct device with this command: alsa_aplay -Dplughw:0,7/storage/path_to_file/sample.wav and I can here on device 7 ...... How can I change the boot up so my sound is set correct I tried to edit the init.sh file using chmod 777 but nothing works there is got to be an easier way. Any help would be great again I know nothing about Android os.

You have to install the read-write mode (default read-only).
If you didn't, just reinstall it and choose the correct answer.
Read this if you need more info:

the steps outlined there are very  well described. I wouldn't know what to add to be more precise. Please read carefully and try again. Pay attention that the first command to issue after opening the terminal window is "su". Eventually post some details on what isn't working at your side, or where you get stuck (eg. "at step#2 I can't do this and that).

Also be aware that there is a better solution, that was kindly pointed out in this newsgroup recently,  by Rob:

However you still need Hernaan procedure to get to know the number of your device (that is, follow Hernaan procedure up to step 5), then follow Rob's hints.
