Copying to Linus kernel may work in most cases but sometimes not since alsa-kernel repo is updated for mm tree.
So building a -mm kernel would also work?
This should work always (otherwise send bug reports :)
Booting with 2.6.21-rc4-mm1 didn't solve the alsa problem (with or without the aclink module parameter).
What did you try exactly?
I start to believe that some change in alsa-utils/lib made the audio output stop working.
Hm, I think it's unlikely. If it's ICH4 or newer, it has a separate SPDIF output slot in the contoller side. Thus, when aclink_spdif = 0 (or not given), the dedicated DMA has to be used to send to AC-link slot 10/11. It's usually done by playing on "spdif" PCM, such as
% aplay -D spdif foo.wav
This is set in ICH register 0x2c (GLOB_CNT) bits SPDIF_XX.
