I'm seeing the same behavior on WYCC with an HDHR-OTA; tunes fine but 
defaults to a bad AC3 stream. I haven't been bothered enough with it to 
investigate yet. When I get back from carousing about tonight I'll try 
using the ATSC tuner in the flat panel to tune and then send the optical 
from the display to the receiver. I have a feeling that someone flipped 
a dip switch at the station and didn't flip it back.
