So, we should solve all together. Actually, the latest posted version didn't have the mixer problem I had before (I haven't looked in detail at what was different). But I agree using a different substream for a different output isn't ideal since there's no way for software to detect that this is the case. Can it be a separate PCM like hw:0,2 or something? Hopefully VIA will also look into the SPDIF no-output problem I have with VT1828S.. > > On most machines, it's not too big deal to have it the secondary digital > as a slave.
