Well looks like we have an answer the pulse audio daemon is not even running.chmod o+rw /dev/snd/*,

Yep, that'll do it. ;-)

What desktop environment do you use? What is the output of:
rpm -qa '*pulseaudio*'

Does your HDMI audio work if you manually run 'start-pulseaudio-x11'?
If not, does 'pacmd info' actually print something after its run?

[root@Re02 ~]# pacmd info
No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.

I did some googling and tried the following :

#1. chmod o+rw /dev/snd/*

After logging out and logging back in the above command made no difference.

#2. authconfig --updateall --nostart
rm -rf ~/.pulse

After logging out and logging back in the above also made no difference

After rebooting with the continued use of radeon.audio=1 on the command
line there was no difference.

Any additional ideas would certainly be appreciated.

T.C,

I am using gnome, but have kde and xfce installed - have not tried
either of the two at this point.

Here is the output of rpm -qa '*pulseaudio*'

I was able to start pulse audio at the user's command line with
'pulseaudio --start' as well as start-pulseaudio-x11. Neither of these
commands resulted in the hdmi sound interface working. The gui of the
hdmi works fine.
