The only difficulty is an implementation detail.  Since the settings are on 
different screens, the setting for "Use video as timebase" would have to be 
tri-state: Off, On, Was on but ac3 is disabled.  Another 2 cents worth.  If 
the user goes from AC3 passthrough off to on, this would disable the video 
as timebase.  Well, if he changes his mind, it should go back to being on.  
However, if it was off the whole time, then changing the AC3 setting 
wouldn't matter.
