ALSA HDA problem with 64-bit kernels

Heip! I recently moved to 64-bit kernel, but mixed sounds (ie. mpegs played with a media player) don't work with optical S/PDIF connection. AC3/DTS passthrough still works, and I can hear the mixed sounds on analog connector. And yes, I have unmuted the IEC958 mixer setting. Tested kernels:
