Hello. I have ASUS A8N-E mobo with nforce4 ultra chipset and digital and coaxial s/pdif. I connected cable to coaxial s/pdif, but i can't get sound from their. I found many solutions for alsa but i want to use nvsound because it gives more good sound. It is any solution for nvsound. Or i need to compile alsa special for s/pdif???

How is one going to give better sound than the other? If you are using SPDIF then you are piping the audio stream straight to your receiver anyway.

Anyway, as far as getting ALSA setup, try this out: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dolby_Digital_Out_%28AC3%2C_SPDIF%29
