The Audiolab M-DAC would do it but its overpriced for your requirement and not something youd hide behind the TV. Very flexible though. The latest version of the Khadas Tone Board I mentioned earlier would be perfect if it had optical instead of coax. It has the necessary headphone amp stage plus USB in (for Pi) and coax.
