I have a Pioneer 106s DVD drive. I have connected the 2 pin digital out
to my RME 96/36 HammerFall sound card. I can play mp3s, oggs, wave files
and the sound from mpeg movies through this card to my preamp just fine.
However playing Cds and  DVDs result in no sound.


using gtcd results in no error messages but i get no sound.

Alsa player reports:    
                failed to configure output device...trying OSS
                Closing already opened plugin?!

Xine reports:
  audio_alsa_out: Audio Device name =
iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
audio_alsa_out: Number of channels = 2
ALSA lib pcm.c:1607:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Invalid type for PCM
iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2 definition (id: iec958,

audio_alsa_out: snd_pcm_open() failed: Invalid argument
audio_alsa_out: >>> check if another program don't already use PCM <<<
audio_out: open failed!
        
again playing mpeg movies in xine works fine...

my alsa modules.conf are as follows:

options snd     snd_device_gid=29 snd_device_mode=0660 snd_cards_limit=1

alias   char-major-116          snd
alias   char-major-14           soundcore

alias   snd-card-0              snd-rme9652
alias   sound-slot-0            snd-card-0

alias   sound-service-0-0       snd-mixer-oss
alias   sound-service-0-1       snd-seq-oss
alias   sound-service-0-3       snd-pcm-oss
alias   sound-service-0-8       snd-seq-oss
alias   sound-service-0-12      snd-pcm-oss

# post-install  snd-card-0      /usr/sbin/alsactl  restore


any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
