well, the dxs_support detection is correct.
the problem is that spdif doesn't support 22.5kHz but the via82xx
driver doesn't restrict the sample rates for spdif.
i guess 44.1khz sample can be played correctly even without "plug".

ok, this bug should be fixed in the future...

a workaround is to define your own pcm such as

pcm.myspdif {
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm "spdif"
                rate 48000
        }
}

and

        % apaly -Dmyspdif 22500hz.wav
