Hello! On my ASUS P5P800-VM motherboard, the onboard AC97-chip (Realtek ALC655) does not indicate that there are any S/PDIF functionality available. However, the manufacturer (Asus) claim that there are S/PDIF output on the board, and of course there is. I created a patch that check the PCI subsystem vendor id and device id, and if it's a match to this board it ignores the AC97_EI_SPDIF bit when the controls are built. This allows me to get the desired S/PDIF output to work just as expected. I'm not sure this is good practise to just ignore this bit or force the bit to 1? I have checked the BIOS for settings regarding S/PDIF, but there are none. The only audio setting available is to control if the chip shall be enabled or disabled. What do you recommend in this case?
