The standard voltage for S/PDIF signals is 0.5V, but the name "CD SPDIF" (and the "TTL" in the name of ther mixer control) implies that the SB wants to have 5V. > This PCM device (it's the 4th PCM device (index 3!) and first subdevice > (index 0) for a given card) allows to forward 48kHz, stereo, 16-bit > little endian streams without any modifications to the digital output > (coaxial or optical). > > And this (if I understand correctly) is exactly what I want to do.

As far as I can see, you can only record from S/PDIF by mixing it with other input signals to device 0.
