OK, that makes sense, thanks for the clarification. I'll probably have
another crack at solving this in the next couple of days. So if
pavucontrol only shows the digital outputs (as described in the bug) I
guess that means that the front:xx output is not correctly or not at
all configured? The config file /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1712.conf
certainly has some blurb in there but it's quite minimal.

Here it is, just for your info and any hints you can give to help my tinkering:

ICE1712.pcm.front.0 {
        @args [ CARD ]
        @args.CARD {
                type string
        }
        type route
        ttable.0.0 1
        ttable.1.1 1
        slave.pcm {
                type hw
                card $CARD
        }
}

Compared to the entry for the digital outputs, it's very brief.

Thanks, Chris.
