Setting jive_alsa to 55 enhances the entire sound stage, in my system it is a welcome change. Increasing SPDIF priority is what changes the equation of the music. It enhances certain high frequencies, thereby creating a sense of spaciality and darker background. But as you listen it is fatiguing and more analytical. I feel the sense of music is lost while the sense of instruments is more. I set SPDIF to 41, hence not losing the bass and also giving it a higher priority than the other processes at 40. I till now did not hear any difference in setting the SPDIF priority to 40 or 41, but think there will be some thing good which I do not hear.
