It means that you have to define software devices for adat and spdif, which output always to 8 or 2 channels hw, as the general plughw device will sometimes open one sometimes the other depending on how many channels your sound source is. As they are on the same output and most people only have one kind of DA converter attached this may not be that convenient. I dont mind the current scheme.
