Just a small update on a few things.

Since there is no ELD support (unless out-of-band communication with the graphics driver is added so that they can provide it to us directly), ELD is currently emulated with only the basic information populated (speaker mask, SADs, connection type). There are some bits missing on the radeon driver side (the SADs etc are not populated) so currently the ELD emulation only works on fglrx. ELD emulation is not needed for multi-channel playback.
Actually, it seems this support is already there in radeon open-source driver. It was added in 3.11 for some chips and 3.12 for others. I haven't tested yet, though.

HBR mode (needed for DTS-HD/TrueHD passthrough) is not working yet, and the released documentation does not mention it.
I'm hearing we may get HBR docs soon. If so, I'll update the patch accordingly at that time.

/* in paired mode we need to take into account
* the occupied channel pairs instead of just the
* channel count */
for (c = 0; c < 8; c++) {
if (cap->speakers[c] || cap->speakers[c+1])
chanpairs++;
}
s/c++/c += 2/
That part is still untested though.
