[asterisk-users] console/dsp with digital sound

[Jerry Geis]

I am using the console/dsp and ALSA on a motherboard with HDMI.
If I am using analog sound on the motherboard it works.
If I switch to the digital sound everything else works but asterisk... 
No sound I mean.

/etc/asound.conf for analog is:
pcm.snd_card {
     type hw
     card 0
     device 0
}

/etc/asound.conf for digital is:
pcm.snd_card {
     type hw
     card 0
     device 3
}

aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: VT1708B Analog [VT1708B Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/2
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  Subdevice #1: subdevice #1
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

So I thought I was setup correcly - but in digital I get an error on the 
cli
that cannot open console/dsp.

Is there something else special to do?
