I've a terratec aureon space 7.1 (ice1724).
With alsa version 1.0.13 AC3 SPDIF passthrough works with all players (mplayer,
xine, vlc), when I upgrade alsa to 1.0.14a it stop working.
On mplayer it works but give the following error:

[AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: conf.c:3949:(snd_config_expand) Unknown parameters AES0=6
[AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: pcm.c:2144:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM
default:AES0=6

On VLC there aren't errors but AC3 sound doesn't work.
On Xine AC3 sound doesn't work and give the following error:

audio_alsa_out: snd_pcm_open() of iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
failed: Invalid argument
audio_alsa_out: >>> check if another program already uses PCM <<<
..
---------------------- (ERROR) ----------------------
The audio device is unavailable. Please verify if another program already uses
it.
------------------ (END OF ERROR) -------------------

Normal stereo audio works with SPDIF, the problem is only with AC3.
I have tested also with Opensuse 10.3 that ships with alsa 1.0.14 and the
problem is the same.
I've tried to upgrade to alsa 1.0.15 but it doesn't work.
