ok, i will try. 
But for understanding: ld10k1+init_audigy use the opposite spdif_bug 
setting? Because with ld10k1 ac3 passthru is working for me.
If it's work with spdif_bug = 0, report this to alsa-devel or somewhere 
else?

thanks, i will try some of them. If i got some of them working, it's 
worth to report to someone?
