Use the ALSA device name "iec958" (or its alias "spdif").
For another than the default sound card, use "iec958:x".

For compressed formats, you have to set the non-audio bit.
Thise device has four parameters AES0..3 for the four bytes
of S/PDIF metainformation.  The non-audio bit can be set by
adding the parameter "AES0=6"; the complete device name then
looks like "spdif:AES0=6" or "spdif:other=parameters,AES0=6"
or "spdif:{ other-parameters ... AES0=6 }".

The try_open_device function of mplayer tries to do this:
