At least, on the audigy player/gamer, the connector used for the digital out is
also used for analog out (see
http://fr.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?manualID=807&Product_ID=237&regionID=3&Product_Name=Audigy+Gamer)
. Thus detecting if there's a cable connected or not to set the 'Audigy
Analog/Digital Output Jack' switch won't work.
