The linked bug for pulseaudio http://www.pulseaudio.org/ticket/139 is indeed the problem.

It does not seem to be a high priority for the team over there, so if anyone knows anything about SPDIF adding support to pulseaudio would be great.

In the mean time there should be an easy way for users to opt out of using pulseaudio either at install or a way to revert back to restore support for the many users with digital sound.
