Hi,

I'm new to this list, or at least it's been many years since I was last
here.

I'm trying to get an RME Digi96 digital interface card working under Ubuntu
10.10.  This is not the Digi96/8 or later variants, but the original
Digi96.  It has PCI ID 10ee 3fc0.  Reading the unofficial ALSA wiki, it
seems that the card should present two devices, device 0 being the 2-channel
S/PDIF interface and device 1 being the 8-channel optical interface, but I
only see one:

$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC662 rev1 Analog [ALC662 rev1 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC662 rev1 Digital [ALC662 rev1
Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 2: Digi96 [RME Digi96], device 0: Digi96 IEC958 [Digi96 IEC958]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

Note that card 1 doesn't show up here because it is capture-only (a
webcam).  Using alsamixer, I can switch the input connector to 'Optical' but
this doesn't help to get a second device out of it.  I can only open device
0 as a 2-in 2-out duplex, not the 8-in 8-out duplex that should be
available.

I'm trying to connect it to a Behringer ADA8000 via ADAT (yes, the cables
are connected the right way around!)  I've tried both setting the ADA8000 as
the clock master at both 44100 and 48000Hz, with the Digi96 set to AutoSync,
and also with the Digi96 set to use its internal clock with the ADA8000 set
to slave to the ADAT input, but neither seems to make any difference.

Does anyone have any pointers on how to get this working?

Thanks,
Tom
