I am afraid I am over my head with this one. I managed to get my digital out to work on my Asus P4P800-E motherboard using info from http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/DigitalSoundHowTo .

I get no sound from non-digital sound sources using MythVideo. I prefer using xine as my default player, but have also tried with mplayer.

I assume there is some command line arguments that I need to add to xine to get it to work, but don't know what.

Here is my .asoundrc :

# Override the default output used by ALSA.
# If you do not override the default, your default
# device is identical to the (unmixed) analog device
# shown below.  If you prefer mixed and/or digital
# output, uncomment the appropriate four lines below
# (only one slave.pcm line).
#pcm.!default {
#  type plug
## Uncomment the following to use mixed analog by default
#  slave.pcm "dmix-analog"
## Uncomment the following to use unmixed digital by default
#  slave.pcm "digital-hw"
## Uncomment the following to use mixed digital by default
  slave.pcm "dmix-digital"
#}

Re-read (or just plain read? ;) the comment... I.e. "Uncomment the appropriate *four* lines below (only one slave.pcm line)," (emphasis added).

pcm.!default {
 type plug
## Uncomment the following to use mixed analog by default
#  slave.pcm "dmix-analog"
## Uncomment the following to use unmixed digital by default
#  slave.pcm "digital-hw"
# Uncomment the following to use mixed digital by default
 slave.pcm "dmix-digital"
}

No configuration required for xine/MPlayer (or any other app). That's the whole purpose of defining the default...
