the latest driver should work with digital out. two possibilities: 1) (better one) if your applications supports ALSA natively, you can use "iec958" pcm as output. 2) (workaround) use /dev/adsp as OSS output device. set 0 to "IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA". turn "IEC958 Output Switch" on. turn "IEC958 Playback Switch" on.
