Just wanted to let everyone know that this setup is currently working 
for me using the DigitalSoundHowTo 
(http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/DigitalSoundHowTo). I can listen 
to music and movies (in 2 channel) without a problem. I still have one 
issue that I'm hoping someone can help me resolve...

When I enable AC3 and DTS passthrough I get no sound. Here is the output 
of 'mythfrontend -v audio':
2007-02-02 19:10:49.482 AFD: Warning, video codec 0xa0fecb0 
id(MPEG2VIDEO) type (Video) already open.

I am set to:
Audio output device: ALSA:digital
Passthrough device: ALSA:digital
I'm using the /etc/asound.conf from the DSHT on the Wiki. It should also 
be noted that I can't get ANY sound to work in either mplayer or xine, 
but I think that mostly from lack of effort since Myth is so close to 
working the way I want.
