Comment (by FireRabbit):

 Hi Lennart,

 Your reply suggests that moving a stream to the "Digital" sound device in
 pavucontrol is not the correct way to have Pulse use SPDIF, because the
 correct behavior is for pulseaudio to not add this device (I had to modify
 my configuration to make it show up). Given this, can you please write up
 documentation explaining the correct way to play streams using optical
 out?

 Thanks very much.
