Why is pulse > not loading it? That's why I had to manually edit the file. Control is the mixer. PA 0.9.10 only initialize the first device of a card. The reason for that is that we cannot deduce how the devices of a card relate to each other: are they the classic 3 stereo made to one 5.1, or are they spdif, or what are they. PA 0.9.15 is now able to probe the available devices properly and thus supports easy selection of SPDIF during runtime.
