Need more info.

Do you mean it's not even showing the devices using those commands others
replied with?

Are you using pulseaudio, which is the default, and it's just not showing
up in their mixer?

Are you using raw ALSA like me, and being very surprised that my graphics
card with two HDMI and two Display Port connectors is showing a dozen HDMI
audio ports, most of which don't work? But two or three of them do work,
and not always the same ones.

Or something else?

VLC was quite useful in listing all the audio devices, and letting me
quickly switch between them.
