ASound.conf that should(?) allow S/PDIF 5.1 via A52?

Hello,

since quite a time (since 0.9) i use a /etc/asound.conf like the attached file.
This allowed me to choose between various outputs/configurations in pauvcontrol
in the past - amongst others "Digital Surround 5.1" via my coaxial S/PDIF
output. However, in the recent version*s* in Debian GNU/Linux (2.1-2 from
experimental or 2.0-6 from testing+unstable) this functionality has ceased to
exist. Instead i am rewarded with a very long log file where pulse would
complain over parameters beeing riduclously large. I'll attach that logfile to
the next comment since i don't know how to attach two files to one report(?).

I'd be grateful for any hints, tips or fixes - even dirty hacks to workaround
this problem!

Best Regards
- Dario Ernst</pre>
