 When playing an ac3 file or ac3 dvd, ac3 passthrough starts for <1 second
 and then disables itself. same file works with xine. if i turn off ac3
 passthrough I get sound.
 All sound is via spdif. The alsa device can be set to ALSA:default
 ALSA:spdif ALSA:iec958 all to no effect.
 I have tested on 2 sound devices, usb-audio and hda-intel. As mentioned
 this does work in xine with the same files so it would appear to be how
 myth is implementing this negotiation, as it does appear to work and then
 fails.
 This is all with the current svn.
