SB OMNI 5.1 USBDAC Digital Out does not appear to work
I have been having this issue getting the Sound Blaster OMNI 5.1 working in digital output mode, my headphones produces a weird pop-crackle-low static noise no matter what output is chosen.
I have tried several older fixes to this problem without much luck.
I'm pretty sure analog output still works however I cannot test that as I don't have analog speakers at this time.
All audio functions for this USB DAC work perfectly under Windows FYI
Could somebody recommend what terminal output I can submit here that might help shed some light on whats going on? I'm currently using ARCH Linux MANJARO and have tried live-usb version of other distro's with the exact same issue which leaves me to believe this is a wide spread problem.
I've tried to go through the following forum post guide about similar issue but to no avail, I just can't get this thing to work!
