I have the same problem as described by Dirk Mayer. Digital sound works 
fine with the ct5880 and the alsa drivers (though stops and starts a bit 
unlike with the modified es1371 driver that comes with the 2.4.18 
kernel) however I can't seen to get hwac3 to work. Has anyone resolved this?

Here's the releveant bit from the mplayer output

ALSA lib pcm.c:1719:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Invalid type for PCM 
iec958:AES0=0x2,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2 definition (id: iec958, 
value: cards.pcm.iec958)
couldn't open/init audio device -> no sound
alsa-init: testing and bugreports are welcome.
alsa-init: requested format: 48000 Hz, 2 channels, AC3
alsa-init: soundcard set to iec958:AES0=0x2,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
alsa-init: playback open error: Invalid argument

Cheers
