I'm trying to play 44.1/16 wav files via s/pdif on a win-xp system,
using a CMI8738 based card and the standard CMI-delivered drivers for
this operating system.

The wav file gets corrupted somehow. I know this for sure since the
wav files contain dts encoded data, which should have been decoded by
the DD/DTS receiver connected to the s/pdif port, but is'nt.

Another s/pdif audio card plays the dts-wav files correctly - the
receiver recognizes the dts stream and decodes it.

How do you get the CMI8738 drivers / hardware in a bit-perfect s/pdif
output mode?
