Are you using the Thinkpad Docking station with the S/PDIF on the side? The headphone jack on those doesn't have S/PDIF. I have not been able to verify this so glad your email came.. but it seems like the T400, T500, & W500 do not actually work with it. Did you try under Windows & if so did it work?
