Hrm. I did
Audio output device: ALSA:iec958
Passthrough output device: ALSA:iec958:CARD=0,AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
and I get digital PCM just fine for non AC3/DTS sound (i,e. analog SDTV
recordings) but nothing for a (say) 5.1 sound track. ~sigh~
All of this is of course after trying the much more simple and
straightforward "ALSA:iec958" or "ALSA:spdif" in the Passthrough option.
Frequently I get the "helicopter blades" sound characterized elsewhere
in this thread.

Of course, I do have those checked.

And not these.
Any further ideas?
