The only problem I can think of with this one is if you NEED to use a
different device. I may not understand this topic completely so tell
me if I'm full of it.

I use passthrough for all of my TV recordings (using HDHR ATSC
recordings only) so I want everything to go out over ALSA:spdif. In my
case my receiver supports 44.1kHz audio but if it did not then
wouldn't I need a separate audio device so I could resample to 48kHz?

If this is truly a problem then one solution may to have two devices
in the main setup, one for PCM sources and one for passthrough
sources.

Thanks,

Richard
