Hi,
Command tried:
speaker-test -c2 -r 48000 -D iec958:CARD=CK804,DEV=0
Still no sound coming through AVR...
For the sake of completeness, I provide a new alsa-info.sh output: http://sprunge.us/ZWLF (I blacklisted the snd_hda_intel this time just to be on the safe side).
The git-link below ( http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=blob;f=src/conf/cards/NFORCE.c... ) seems to point to the .conf for nForce2/3; min is a nForce4 (don't know if nForce4 is supposed to use this same .conf).
THNX already, Bye! _____ *Gilles Hemberg* /gilles.hemberg@gmail.com/

Sorry to bump in like this, but I was advised to submit a bug-report
for the ALSA-drivers on my HTPC: no sound comes through out of my AVR when I select the digital output through SPDIF (TOSLINK).
The relevant parts of my HTPC are as follows: * CPU: Athlon64 X2 3800+ * Motherboard: ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard (BIOS 1805)
NForce4 with CK804 sound (relying on a Realtek ALC850 chip)
* RAM: 2x 512 MB DDR-400 * GPU: nVidia Geforce GT240 (which carries a HDMI port and uses
the snd-
* Receiver: Marantz SR7500 (supporting both Dolby Digital 5.1
and DTS decoding), connected to motherboard's SPDIF TOSLINK port (optical) + JBL 5.1 speaker-set
* OpenElec 4.2.0: Kernel 3.16.3, Alsa 1.0.28
Symptoms: Speaker-test does not produce any sound. Command used is as follows:
speaker-test -c2 -r 48000 -D hw:0,2
No sound either from other applications (such as XBMC 13.2).
SPDIF worked flawlessly on the exact same hardware & connections
using Win7/XBMC.
Sound does come through the SPDIF when I use hw:0,0 (= analog device).
Things tried (none working): * Blacklisting snd-hda-intel (= HDMI from my GPU) to make sure
CK804 is the only sound chip visible.
* amixer set 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' Playback 100% unmute

Take a look at alc850 datasheet
Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 3 Mono: 0 [0%]
This is not volume control, it is SPDIF out Slot Assignment in ac97 link
You have to use iec958:CARD=CK804
