[alsa-devel] snd-hda-intel support for SPDIF-in wiht vt1708 card?

I am trying to use a Via VT1708 audio card ( uses the snd-hda-intel.ko driver) to record from SPDIF-in.

An off-list reply to my posting to alsa-users list suggested that snd-hda-intel.ko might not support SPDIF-in with the VT1708 card, which brought me here.

Can someone who works on the Intel HDA driver tell me if it supports SPDIF-in on the VT1708 audio card?

Should 'arecord -L' show "Digital Audio Input"?

Environment: Audio Card: VT1708 ALSA version: 1.0.15 (as gentoo packages) Driver: snd-hda-intel.ko (In-kernel) Kernel: 2.6.23-gentoo-r3 Distribution: Gentoo Systemboard: PX10000G (VIA pico-itx) Case: Serener GS-L08 case
