ive done testing, and found that you dont need any config changes
simply booting with the hdmi unplugged is enough to reduce the power usage
That's not the subject!

The Q is if these overlay options actually do what they are designed for. The existence of that cmdline option could point to a
flaw in the system.
snd_bcm2835.enable_hdmi=1 relates to the legacy audio driver. As you're loading vc4-kms-v3d that won't be enabled - HDMI audio and video are inherently connected (audio goes in the video blanking periods)
You can confirm for yourself with "aplay -l" to list the audio devices on the system.
Hmmh.

I thought the legacy driver would be turned off with:

Code:

dtparam=audio=off
in config.txt. Which btw still produces the confusing /proc/cmdline entry.

And I'd also assume that if I have a different GPU driver - also in charge for the audio part - in the game, that the legacy driver for HDMI audio should be disabled by the system to avoid concurrent operation. But again. The confusing part is what's shown in /proc/cmdline. And that after turning all related params to "off". The entry still keeps showing "on".
