I can't find a trace to explain why in kern.log or in syslog.

Are you sure that you are not using the spdif PCM beforehand? Before running ac3dec, check which PCM substream is being opened.

Duuhh ... Stupid mistake on my side: I've sent both test streams to SPDIF. I must have been more tired than I thought.

I'll test again this week-end.

Sorry for the trouble.
