[arch-general] alsa, hdmi, and the invisible magic output

[Andy Reindl]

What does "cat /proc/asound/modules" give you?  If it lists two different
modules, maybe the driver you don't want is loading before the good one,
causing alsa to pick the bad one as the primary.  In which case you might
just be able to fix that by placing the following in
/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf:  "options module_name_here index=-2" which
should make the bad module load after the good one.  That happened on my
system, and this fix worked perfectly for me.
