The gnome-control-center sound panel seems to believe that
it can output audio to the HDMI output, but nothing comes
out on a sound test.
$ pactl list sinks | grep 'Sink\|Mute'
Sink #0
Mute: yes

If I install the binary nvidia driver from rpmfusion, I
do get HDMI audio, so I'm guessing the nvidia driver
just can't do audio yet?
Well then, does it work or not!? :)
It seems that you are mixing up Nvidia blob and Nouveau, in a way the
second one wasn't mentioned, at all. Gee!
And you know, they are both binary for use. :)
Besides HDMI audio with the assistance of the 'nouveau.ko' *do* work.
