It appears that I have to modprobe snd-card-rme96 manually for it to
work (I faintly remember seeing something similar mentioned on the list,
in the very beginning of my quest).
Hurray!
aplay -D plughw:0,1 somefile.wav plays out to the ADAT port (and
plughw:0,0 to the spdif)! However, a nasty volume-dependent click train
can be heard (*not* on the spdif). The ADAT converter's lock led is on,
though. I know the FOSTEX VC-8 is not the most stable around, but it
performs flawlessly with my KORG digital mixer (@ 48kHz). The result is
exactly the same when switching the VC-8 to internal clock (44.1kHz) or
even when playing a 44.1kHz wave. Might be this 'route conversion'...
