if you're running my repo, it's tweaked a lot :)

if using plain 0.24 not really.

A fix went in but nothing that could affect your issue

I remember your email, and did nothing to fix anything ; as the
problem is with your setup and not myth code

can't you provide a log with -v audio ?

I think I know what problem you are having..

Try the following:

Go into advanced audio settings:
check override audio passthrough, and in there enter:
ALSA:iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0,AES0=6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x00,AES3=0x01

See how you go.

This is what I changed lately that could affect your problem. Adding
this broke it for some other.
I guess in your case, it's reacting properly and it's the other person
that was weird.
