Raymond: thank you for your time and effort!
Following your advice I was able to configure iec958:CARD=U7 and point it at
the correct hardware device.
The following aplay command goes to the digital output:
$ aplay -D iec958:CARD=U7 test.wav
However, the pulseaudio still redirects both, Analog and Digital (S/PDIF)
outputs to the same analog output.
There are no special characters in the card name.
Here is an excerpt from /usr/share/alsa/cards/USB-Audio.conf:
USB-Audio.pcm.iec958_device {
"Xonar U7" 1
...
}
The outputs of pactl list and aplay -L are attached.
So, what shall I do with pulseaudio to recognize the iec958 output?
** Attachment added: "aplay -L output"
