Since I found no information in the right forum section here (all information went into the fglrx section of the forum under a different title...), amd seems to have released the specs for HDMI Audio on radeon cards. I bet this enables the drivers to support more than stereo or compressed 5.1 channel output in the next neartime.
See here for reference:
This was brought to my audience by xbmc developer fritsch who also got some good news for AMD OSS driver users: XBMC will work with the drivers in a near timeframe. A big missing piece was the missing support of the GLX extension VDPAU_INTEROP for mixed GL/video contexts. Christian Koenig has a patchset in his mesa git which adds in that extension.

So after all this is a pretty well day for amd powered mediapcs !
