Hi everybody,

I remember reading something about enabling the SPDIF output (pcm out) while
using OSS. Unfortunately I couldn't  find it anymore. I am on Ubuntu Lucid.
The digital out of the (onboard) soundcard works when I use ALSA. However,
when I switch to OSS it doesn't even output a sync signal.
I know it can be enabled (probably in modprobe.d) but I don't know how
exactly. Any ideas?

...and switching the digital out in ALSA mixer has no effect on OSS?
I remember using it regardless of what sound system is in effect...
