No Digital Sound Out
In Mint 17.2 (Ubuntu 14.04.3) I am failing to get SPDIF 2-channel (digital) sound into the coaxial input on my receiver from the coaxial output on the motherboard (ATI chip) . Analog sound output works fine. Both analog and digital sound work fine in my dual boot WIN 7 OS. My hardware is an HP a1250n Media Center with a 64-bit AMD processor. I have tried steps in the Ubuntu SoundTroublesho
