I confirm the problem with the integrated chip Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller of an Asus P5LD2 motherboard. The S/PDIF (IEC958) output doesn't work.
Adding the line "options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dig" at bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf solved the problem for me.
I don't try to compile the newer alsa kernel drivers (1.0.19)
