Hi there!

I'm wondering why dts and aac sound coming from DVD is perfectly transmitted 
over the spdif port (the A/V receiver recognizes the format ans switches to 
dts/dolby mode, and -- much important -- I can hear the movie's sound); But 
if I try the same with a "normal" divx-file or try to play anything else, 
nothing comes out over the spdif port, only via the analog audio jacks I 
can hear something.

The card is an onboard ac97 codec (via VT8237 based), driver is alsa, from 
kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r1

I found in some forum the advise to use alsamixer and set the control "IE958 
playback AC97-spsa" to 0, I did so, but it didn't help. 

Thanks in adavance for any suggestions.

        Greetings
                Alex
