The hdmi output is missing. This is how it should look like (similar  
MB, alsa 1.0.19):

default:CARD=NVidia
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     Default Audio Device
front:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     Front speakers
surround40:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers
surround41:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     4.1 Surround output to Front, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround50:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     5.0 Surround output to Front, Center and Rear speakers
surround51:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     5.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Rear and Subwoofer speakers
surround71:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Analog
     7.1 Surround output to Front, Center, Side, Rear and Woofer speakers
iec958:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, ALC1200 Digital
     IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output
hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
     HDA NVidia, NVIDIA HDMI
     HDMI Audio Output
null
     Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
