Everything works perfectly. PA identified quite a few working profiles. It will default to Analog Stereo. Now use a recent version of pavucontrol to switch the card to an SPDIF device. Or use "set-card-profile" on the pacmd prompt to switch. "list-cards" in pacmd will show you the supported profiles of your cards.
