I've had issues with distorted audio played via HDMI since Sept. 2019 on 3 different computers.
You can make out speech played via HDMI, but it is really distorted. After a time it sounds normal, ie undistorted. It used to occur the every time when a computer was booted. Now it seems to occur after it comes out of sleep mode.
Analog audio plays fine. These machines have a variety of sound adapters in them and all of them act the same.
Is anyone else experiencing this ?

I had a similar problem on an Ubuntu box. Just opening pulseaudio fixed the buzz, etc. I did not have to do anything besides opening that application.
Thanks for the reply.
What do you mean by "Just opening pulseaudio fixed the buzz" ? A pulseaudio application ? Pulseaudio volume control ?

I never really understood what happened. I get the feeling that the low level initialization wasn't done completely. Starting the high level app (pa) may have accomplished what the initializing code did not.
Thanks for the tip. Opening pulse audio volume control didn't fix it, but going to the Configuration tab and changing the output from one HDMI device to another and back did. Except that the audio is now delayed by a couple seconds.
I've thought it was an initialization error for quite some time. I never want to complain about OS software, but this bug has been very annoying.
