Check first whether "ac3dec -C foo.ac3" work to send AC3 data (not on the fly encoding). Try a52 plugin after confirming this works.

Does not work with -C, but works with --card=0 - only as a PCM audio signal, sadly, which already works (no digital dolby, only left and right speakers are active). I checked -C --card=0 and all the other settings of ac3dec as well - no success.

(And, I know there are still some bugs with a52 plugin but no time to play with it right now...)

Problem seems to lie deeper...
