Has anyone had any luck enabling S/PDIF output with the Conexant 20561/ctx5051?
On my Lenovo W500 I see a digital output device, I can play on it but I can't hear any sound on my receiver. There was a patch by Takashi earlier this year to correct a wrong nodeID (03b515c45e2a93331d2ac9dc1c16440f7fa313ec, ALSA: hda - Fix SPDIF output widget for Cxt5051 codec), so I figure some amount of testing has been done already?
I wonder if this comes from a non-initialized pin configuration as reported in /proc/asound/card0/codec#0?
