Comment(by danielk):

 Ok, so in my testing so far ALSA:analog works great at 2ch and 5.1ch.
 Kudos.

 But with "ALSA:spdif":
   AC3 passthrough only when "Max Audio Channels" is set to "Stereo".
     When time stretch is engaged (disabling passthrough) CPU usage
     goes through the roof (110% of on an AMD 64 X2 4200+), there
     is sound, but it is very corrupted.
   Without AC3 passthrough checked, there is no sound at all.

 I have not tested with other audio output methods yet or to see if DTS
 passthrough sound still works. Before I do, had you tested SPDIF output?
 If so and you got sound, what kind of CPU usage were you seeing?
