trunk25217 just showed up in the repository this morning.

1st bit of odd behavior: When I initially brought up the audio setup page, "No digital passthrough" was unchecked, and ungreyed.
I did not think this was correct for my setup, so I clicked on the checkbox. It then became checked and greyed.

Checkbox alignment is still off under "Advanced audio configuration"

If I select ALSA:iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0, I get all three checkboxes under "Audio Processing Capabilities", LPCM is greyed and
checked. This does not change when changing Speaker Configuration between stereo and 5.1. This may be what you intended. I would
have expected LPCM to be greyed and unchecked though.

If I select ALSA:default (and scan for audio devices) all three items in "Audio Processing Capabilities" are ungreyed and checked.

This one I don't think is correct:
If I select ALSA:hdmi:CARD=HDMI, LPCM is greyed and checked. If Dolby digital and DTS are unchecked, Speaker configuration is
limited to stereo. I was under the impression that HDMI could handle 7.1 through LPCM. When DTS or Dolby digital are selected,
5.1 shows up in the speaker configuration list. Comment for this claims it supports up to 5.1.

At least the DTS and Dolby Digital check boxes are appearing when they should now.

This is completely irrelevant, but I just discovered that the volume control on my receiver does not work for the analog inputs.
By switching to analog inputs, my receiver is reduced to being a fixed gain amplifier.
