I had the same problem today. I was trying to put vlc playing in 5.1, and the same thing happened. Now I only have sound from the analogue output (headphones) or when I play anything with AC3 sound with totem. Everything was working perfectly before that. I've tried to put vlc with the original configuration, reconfiguring alsa, fiddle with the mixer settings, etc, but nothing worked... I will try to reinstall alsa. My specs are similar ASUS P4P800-E, SB Live with SPDIF to amplifier, Ubuntu Feisty with latest kernel
