I use Xine but with X11 and alsa mixer/ESD. There are several settings which have to be correct, so that dolby paththrough works. /usr/bin/iecset audio on /usr/bin/amixer sset 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' 0 /usr/local/bin/xine --verbose=1 -S session=0 -B --audio-driver alsa ... .xine/config gui.experience_level:Master of the known universe gui.audio_mixer_method:Software audio.driver:alsa audio.device.alsa_front_device:default audio.device.alsa_mmap_enable:1 audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Pass Through audio.synchronization.slow_fast_audio:0 audio.synchronization.av_sync_method:metronom resample audio.synchronization.resample_mode:off audio.volume.mixer_volume:100 audio.volume.remember_volume:1 Maybe this gives you some hint of what works here.
