Comment (by ari):
+1 for AC3 passthrough support over SPDIF in pulseaudio. This is the only
feature I really miss in pulseaudio in my soon-to-be linux media center.
When playing back a movie that has ac3 / dolby audio and spdif is being
used, and there is no other audio stream active (no mixing) then it would
be great for pulseaudio to let the ac3 stream go through spdif with no
decoding/encoding overhead... which I'm guessing would affect the stream
quality.
