Hello, i am running kernel 2.6.6 with an nforce2 motherboard, and i have ALSA and OSS compatibility built into the kernel. I am having trouble getting sound to come out of the SPDIF connector. XMMS works, but applications such as xine and system sounds dont work.

The xine FAQ says to change the speaker configuration to pass through but that does not help. Does anyone know how to get all sounds to go through the SPDIF connector? or atleast Xine. Thanks.

Try to use alsamixer.

the alsamixer idea did not work. but a weird thing is i came across an mov file that plays sound in xine. all the other mov files that ive tried do not play sound. strange
