I don't have the same card as the others, though I have the same problem. I have a Creative CTXFI Titanium and with < 12.04 this all worked just fine (after a few tweaks). I can confirm that in 12.04 I cannot select the digital surround sound options simply because they do not exist ... though just "Digital Output (S/PDIF)" does exist.

Here is a link to the output:

> aplay -l

does list all the surround options (listed in this following pastbin):

Why it lists hundreds of subdevices I don't know, though the important thing is that digital surround sound is listed.

and the command "pacmd list-cards" does list all the correct profiles (see line 47), just none of them are selectable via the GUI:
