Is it possible to get surround sound via Optical with the ALC1150 on Mavericks 10.9.4?
I have an Asus Z97-DELUXE and a DTS compatible audio system (Logitech Z906) and I can't get DTS passthrough to work...
I am using Clover and used the cloverALC method (https://github.com/toleda/audio_CloverALC)
I modified the config.plist correctly according to the note for series 9 motherboards.
Sound is working, all outputs are working. But when playing a DTS source in MPlayerX or XBMC, it doesn't send digital audio.
Before getting my new computer, I had a ALC888, using the AppleHDA.kext from Multibeast, and patched according to the customisation guide in order to enable passthrough even in VLC and it worked (on Mavericks)
But with ALC1150, I can't get it to work. The source is DTS, the receiver is DTS compatible (there is a "DECODE" led that lights up when it is working properly). In MPlayerX I checked the DTS/AC3 passthrough checkboxes and all I hear is static when playing a DTS source...
I read that there is no "patch" to make ALC1150 digital audio work with VLC but it should be working at least in MPlayerX, right?
EDIT: just to make sure, I tested in Windows and my sound system correctly receives and decodes DTS so it really is a software problem
