Re: Trying to get AC3 passthrough to work (nforce4)

Barring a solution to this problem...can someone recommend a cheap, sound card that is
confirmed to have AC3 pass through working with Alsa under Ubuntu?  Do all of the USB
sound cards work?

It took me a while to get any output out the optical out, but I now have stereo sound coming out.

I cannot get AC3 passthrough to work however.  Here is the output of aplay -l:

wesley@mediacenter:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

I am using Ubuntu (both 6.10 and 7.04 had the same problem).  I have been searching
on the ubuntuforums, and have found a lot of people with the same issue, but no one
with a solution.

Does AC3 passthrough work with this hardware?  If so, what do I need to do to get
it working?

Thanks in advance,
Buck
