Thank you. I've uploaded the log file as a text file which hopefully works - as wasn't sure what the log paste function is?

Hi - I've installed Kodi 12.2 (Generic) onto a Dell Wyse 3040 (Intel Atom x86 x5 Z-8350 Quad core) and there is no HDMI audio to my TV (Toshiba). I've scoured the various groups and tried all of tips with no success, so any help would be great. Other than the audio issue the install is perfect and the video over HDMI is working.
What have I tried?
* Atom - Different version of LibreElec 12.0 (both generic and legacy). Also the latest daily build and an old version 9.2. They all have the same issue.
* Atom - Changing the settings for pass-through and also TV settings for CEC enable/disable. No change.
* Atom - Connecting to a different HDMI TV (Samsung) works fine, which proves the install / hardware is good.
* Using another device LibreElec (RPI5) with the Toshiba TV also works fine.
It looks to be compatibility issue between the Atom /Dell Wyse 3040 and the Toshiba TV. Within Kodi I can see all of the HDMI sinks listed including the Toshiba TV name, so the CEC is working, but none of them work and deliver sound. What's interesting is that 'speaker-test' utility does work, so the connection / cables are all ok and I suspect it's a configuration issue within LibreElec / Kodi. The Atom /Dell Wyse 3040 has two display ports, which both have the same issue, and the displayport to HDMI cables are fully working.
I've included the relevant Kodi log file entries, which indicate an error opening the audio sink.
