<pre>Raymond, thank you very much for your explanation.
I was able to get the SPDIF output work properly when modifying the
/usr/share/alsa/cards/USB-Audio.conf like this:
USB-Audio.pcm.iec958_device {
"USB Sound Blaster HD" 1
}
I assume the SPDIF input is also on device 1, but I cannot test that.
The USB-Audio.conf header says that it is preferred to change /etc/asound.conf
instead, but adding the line
cards.USB-Audio.pcm.iec958_device."USB Sound Blaster HD" 1
did not help at all. I had to change the USB-Audio.conf instead.
I will send a report to the ALSA project.</pre>
