Daniel,

Here is a link with the new info that you requested: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=f45fe06caa17b80c9035a724397c027bf79de1c8

This problem is still relevant for me and my system, even with the newest Karmic install.

The only cool part is that the volume now works with optical out. :) Still, the audio seems to be playing faster, like double speed. Almost chipmunk-style.
