I'm pretty sure you can't use spdif with pulse at the moment as ac3
passthrough is not supported. I think Lennart posted as much on this
list on a different thread the other day.

The surround51:0 should work but it is analog and wont pump data to your
DTR decoder.

I think the only option for now is to bypass pulse.
