Card	Chip	Type	PCI ID	Subsystem	Notes
VIA 8237	Realtek ALC655 rev 0	on-board	1106:3059	1565:8212	Analog Stereo S/PDIF: PCM, AC3/DTS passthrough
HDA NVidia	Analog Devices AD1986A	on-board (ASUS M2NPV-VM)	10DE:026C	10DE:CB84	Analog Stereo: this driver is 5.1 native, not stereo. One of the speakers probably gets the LFE and that gives a high pitched sound in the headphones S/PDIF: PCM, AC3/DTS passthrough
Intel ICH5	Analog Devices AD1888	on-board	8086:24D5	1043:810D	Analog Stereo S/PDIF: PCM, AC3/DTS passthrough
SB Live [Unknown]	SigmaTel STAC9708,11	PCI	1102:0002	1102:8067	Analog Stereo works S/PDIF is not reliable. At first, there was no S/PDIF output, but, at some point, passthrough started working, but not PCM. On another variation of this card (different subsystem), PCM worked (but not passthrough) after enabling the AC97 loopback (snd-ac97-codec module parameter) and unmuting the ADC/DAC control in alsamixer, but not on this one. When trying to play PCM through S/PDIF, this card clicks once every few seconds (once S/PDIF started to work that is) until the playing is stopped.
NVidia CK804	Realtek ALC850 rev 0	on-board (ASUS A8N-E)	10de:0059	1043:812a	Analog Stereo works S/PDIF output doesn't work
