The following .asoundrc works for me to route stereo sound simultaneously to digital and analog output. Doesn't work for 5.1 sound sources though.
Code:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm multi
rate 48000
}
ttable.0.0 1.0
ttable.1.1 1.0
ttable.0.2 1.0
ttable.1.3 1.0
}
pcm.stereo {
type plug
slave {
pcm multi
rate 48000
}
ttable.0.0 1.0
ttable.1.1 1.0
ttable.0.2 1.0
ttable.1.3 1.0
}
ctl.stereo {
type hw
card 0
}
pcm.multi {
type multi
slaves.a.pcm "analog-hw"
slaves.a.channels 2
slaves.b.pcm "digital-hw"
slaves.b.channels 2
bindings.0.slave a
bindings.0.channel 0
bindings.1.slave a
bindings.1.channel 1
bindings.2.slave b
bindings.2.channel 0
bindings.3.slave b
bindings.3.channel 1
}
ctl.multi {
type hw
card 0
}
# Alias for analog output on the nForce2/4 (hw:0,0)
# - This is identical to the device named "default"--which
# always exists and refers to hw:0,0 (unless overridden)
# - Therefore, we can specify "hw:0,0", "default", or "analog"
# to access analog output on the nForce2/4
pcm.analog {
type plug
slave.pcm "analog-hw"
}
# Control device (mixer, etc.) for the nForce2 card
ctl.analog {
type hwplug
card 0
}
# Alias for (rate-converted) mixed analog output on the
# nForce2 (hw:0,0)
# - This will accept audio input--regardless of rate--and
# convert to the rate required for the dmix plugin
# (in this case 48000Hz)
pcm.mixed-analog {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix-analog"
}
# Control device (mixer, etc.) for the nForce2 card
ctl.mixed-analog {
type hw
card 0
}
# Alias for (rate-converted) digital (S/PDIF) output on the
# nForce2 (hw:0,2)
# - This will accept audio input--regardless of rate--and

# (in this case 48000Hz)
pcm.digital {
type plug
slave.pcm "digital-hw"
}
# Control device (mixer, etc.) for the nForce2 card
ctl.digital {

pcm.mixed-digital {

slave.pcm "dmix-digital"

# Control device (mixer, etc.) for the nForce2 card
ctl.mixed-digital {

card 0
}
# Control device (mixer, etc.) for the nForce2/4 card
ctl.dmix-digital {
