The card is certainly supported, but I am unaware wether this digital out is, I didn't bother installing it as I had no use (or space) for it. My SB Live Value has a 12-or-so-pin header, which has digital in and out. I made up a lead with an LED and a small resistor, and use it as an optical out. Works just fine in ALSA.

(looks like it's laid out for 10 pins but pin 3 on the last row is missing). The amp on my DVD/surround sound box only has this for an input. Any Linux supported cards with this on?

I haven't come across them being used for digital audio (where I have seen 4-pin S-DIF and optical connectors), only analogue. They used to be used by Logitech bus mice, if you could find one of those in someone's doesn't work, but might be useful for parts box. Thanks Ray, I'll see if I can blag a cable from trust. (looking inside the amp there weren't too many chips in evidence, I suspect it's an analogue signal).
