Comment(by lennart):

 It would be relatively easy to add a few keys to the udev db which encode
 whether spdif is physically available on certain machines even though it
 is supported by the sound chip. PA could then read those keys and hide the
 profile entries.

 However I have my doubts that we'd have any chance of keeping that
 database even remotely up-to-date. It's hard enough maintaining a database
 which includes fixes that make specific hw work. But even harder it is to
 maintain a database which hides certain options on other hardware.
