Thanks philippe_44, cliveb and d6jg for the helpful ideas. The easiest
to try would be feeding the analogue outputs back into the analogue
inputs. I would think that the signal in from the Toslink should appear
at the analogue outputs because their typical use is to feed a sub. The

I was digging around in one of my Raspberry Pi implementations today and
saw this which remonded me of this thread.
Disclaimers
1. I haven't tried it
2. Not sure whether or not it would operate on a Toslink connection or
not

Maybe imaging isn't the best word here, but it would be playing the left
channel out of the speaker on the right and vice versa. I confess that

Sure, I understand that's the claim, but I am not convinced that the
notion of absolute polarity has any validity. This is just one more
skeptic vs. audiophile debate and really off-topic for this thread. I

I stand corrected.
I expect it is possible if you are using Linux or a variant on a Pi but
you problem have to go to the command line.

Perhaps so. The Pi Im looking at has a Justboom DAC attached and its
