Touch SPDIF with EDO and poweroff behavior

[kreutpet]

hi ,

i recently installed the enhanced Digital Output app to connect my touch to nupro A-500 SPDIF.
The nupro supports a standby function and monitors it’s digital inputs.
Unfortunately the standby function does not work with the SPDIF output from the touch even if the touch is power off from the display.

I tried to find something here in the forum on the behavior of the SPDIF output when touch is powered off. Unfortunately I was not really successful in finding something.

Does the EDO and kernel driver allow to switch off the SPDIF when touch is powered off?

thx

My Touch is connected to a Topping E30 via coax and it also doesn't allow the DAC to enter standby when the Touch is powered off.

I was able to logon to the touch device with ssh

a dmesg shows that we have alsa :

ALSA device list:
  #0: MXC Freescale with SPDIF
  #1: fab4 (ak4420)
  #2: fab4 (wm8974)

before i mess around, the follwoing command should switch off the SPDIF output.

amixer -c 0 cset name='IEC958 Playback Default' on

does somebody have experiences with this?
could a power off on the touch tigger such a command and also on power on?

thx

i checked now if the following command

amixer -c 0 cset name='IEC958 Playback Default' off

can be used.

unfortunately it does not create the expected result. The SPDIF seems to be still on.
