I've just purchased my OUYA and similar to my raspberry pi running raspbmc I get no sound over the HDMI out the box. With my raspberry pi I had to add hdmi_drive=2 to the config and then I got sound over HDMI. This I'm guessing is due to my tv requiring a specific mode being enabled or different HDMI driver, to be honest I'm not sure.

Does anyone know if there is a similar setting I can change somewhere on an OUYA box? I'm desperate to get things working and don't want to have to take the box back.

Any help would be much appreciated. I'm sure this will also solve a number of the HDMI sound issues with OUYA dotted over the web.

I've still got the same problem. I do believe it's similar to what I experience on then Raspberry Pi.

I contacted ouya and they didn't come up with a fix either. If you find a fix before I do please let me know.

Its the HDMI
Im dealing with the same issue. Im running through an HDMI splitter now and it seems to be okay BUT previously I would have to pull and plug my HDMI like 5 times when Id boot the OUYA to get sound out. It seems to be fine lately.

Try different cable, different ports on the TV and boot the ouya and just pull and plug a few times live and see if it works.
