Achim, I read you explanation but I can't get it working like expected.
I run my tests on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 alpha2. I configure VLC with "use S/PDIF if possible" and totem with "direct AC3 output". I chose "analog duplex" profile for my usb terratec MKII sound card on gnome-volume-control. When I play a dolby-digital sample vob file, I get stereo sound trough my optical connexion. This is strange because this happen even when "digital output" profile isn't used. Is it my sound card that create a digital stereo stream ? Is there a way to get more information about what kind of stream is sended by the system through the digital output ? -- S/Pdif / digital output not available in pulseaudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/205717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
