Kernel currently distributed with 3.11 has known bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D205855 which causes the audio to be really bad and not useable. I was affected on nvidia card using nouveau drivers. Not sure if amd or intel suffers from same problem. No errors message is printed anywhere, just the audio is shit. If you need audio-over-hdmi, I can confirm that the patch in the bug report does fix the problem, so you can either use it with 5.4.5 (what I did) or wait with upgrading to 3.11 for 5.4.6 kernel.
