Summary:                    No AC3 via SPDIF possible
Description: 
I have a onboard ES1371 soundcard with SPDIF output. It works fine with the
ALSA driver for analog and PCM output, even over SPDIF, but it is
impossible to play AC3 sound over the SPDIF output. Only a clicking noise
comes out of my speakers when I try this.

The problem is, that the raw data is modified by the sound chip and not
passed 1:1 to the SPDIF output. To get correct AC3 playback, the mixer and
the sample rate converter have to be bypassed. This means that
additionally to the bit ES_1373_SPDIF_THRU the bits ES_1373_RECEN_B and
ES_1373_BYPASS_P1/ES_1373_BYPASS_P2 have to be set to make AC3 playback
work.

It's better to check the non-audio bit in the IEC958 status controls.
Does the attached patch work?
