Some additional info, my Jack Retask settings:
It seems that with Pin ID: 0x1e there is some response and this is the
only pin that has SPDIF options. It detects 'Not Connected'
The settings are:
Connectivity: Internal
Location: Rear
Device: SPDIF Out
Jack: Optical
Color: Black
Jack Detection: Present
Channel group: 8 ( I have tried them all)
Channel (in group): Back
Anyone suggestions I could try?
You are using Jack and it's safe to say I don't know jack about that... but a few things I can think of.
First, the setting "Channel (in group): Back" - that doesn't seem to be a useful setting. Wouldn't you want "Front" instead?
Second, I have spent endless hours futzing around with crappy intermittent optical connectors and poorly-designed sockets. Have you any other options to try?
Third, when you send audio to the device, does the situation change?
Fourth, this is interesting though it talks about Pulse and Alsa interactions and not Jack. https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/628
Fifth, this might be worth a look https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture#Getting_S.2FPDIF_output
Sixth, Dell did (does?) sell some XPS machines with Linux; does Dell have any drivers for this?
That's it for me.
