Comment:

 (In [11392]) Fixes #2109. Adds support for AC3 passthrough audio with OSS
 drivers.

 This sets the format flag appropriately, since many filters & decoders
 don't detect digital data robustly.

 In addition to the code that was added in [10718] and reverted in [10762]
 this adds a sanity check to make sure the drivers support AC3 passthrough
 before setting the passthrough bit. Some drivers support AC3 passthough,
 but don't support the official OSS API for it and die a horrible death
 when you set the AC3 bit.
