An easy one is "do you get sound when you log in."  If not, it's an
underlying ubuntu problem.  The most common digital output problem is
that the digital-output mixer is (sometimes, I can't figure out when
or when not) muted by default.  Go into alsa-mixer (or the volume
control in ubunt, you'll need to go into advanced options and enable
EVERYTHING to get the checkbox) and make sure digital out is not
muted.
