Having a problem getting any sound over the Optical out. ALSA seems to be working fine otherwise, sound is fine when i plug headphones into the normal analog port.

Kernel 2.6 using the intel 8x0 alsa driver.

The strange thing is that *something* is happening because when I mute the IEC958 control in alsamixer, the digital light on my reciever goes off as you would expect.

what type of hardware do you have? motherboard stuff like that? is it an nforce2? If so i'm not sure if it will work, i read that some where, do a search you should find something.

Yeah it's the onboard sound on an abit IC7 (i875). I've tried all kinds of things found from searching, but no luck so far. Last bump for help!
