Hello,

I just got an Hercules Fortissimo III soundcard and i'm trying to use
the  IEC958 TOSLINK Output (optical out). I cannot get any sound on it,
even after changing the /etc/asound.state file. I was wondering if
optical out was supported at all on this card. It's using the cs46xx module.

For reference here is some conf param :

Debian unstable, alsa 9.0rc7, the alsa conf was made using alsaconf

/etc/alsa/modutils/0.9
