[Alsa-user] Problem with envy24control and Delta 1010LT S/PDIF out

[Doug McLain]

From v.1.0.3rc2 on, whenever I open envy24control, the S/PDIF output 
drops out.  The Master Clock setting gets set to 'Word Clock'.  I can 
usually regain output by switching back to an internal clock source. 
Sometimes it kills S/PDIF completely, meaning the 'digital in' LED on my 
monitors drops out, and wont return until I unload and reload the 
ice1712 driver.

I did a diff between 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 to see that the subdevice ID of the 
1010LT has been added to a couple of checks.  The one in particular that 
seems to be hosing me is the function called on line 85 of >= 1.0.3rc2:

snd_ctl_elem_value_set_boolean(word_clock_sync, 0, on ? 1 : 0);

By commenting this line all the S/PDIF problems go away, and I can 
open/close envy24control at will without losing the output.  All of the 
master clock functionality works as excpected.  I confirmed this on 
1.0.3rc2, 1.0.3, 1.0.4, and CVS versions of alsa-tools.  I don't know 
the alsa lib API well enough yet to know if this is a legitimate fix for 
a legitimate bug, but it does at least fix the problem on 4 delta 1010LT 
equipped machines that I have.
