I thought so about the digital output, but wanted to make sure.
I know the ADAT is set up right, because everything works in Windows XP.

I tried your example. Aplay is rather stupid, so it is seems it needs a
soundfile with a equal amount of channels that can be allocated on the
card; in this case 8.
As far as i know wave files only support stereo. So i tried feeding it
noise, like

aplay -D hw:0,1 -r 44100 -f S16_LE -c 8 ~/plg-second-printing-update.ps

aplay starts to play with the output:

Playing raw data '/users/lai/plg-second-printing-update.ps' : Signed 16
bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Channels 8

But no sound. I am nearly giving up now...
