I Finally managed to get sound out of my speakers using analog out on the onboard audio and CD in on the receiver. As soon as I pluged the left and right outputs in, I got an audio popup to configure the outputs. It came as speaker out( no option to assign L/R so they are hooked up backwards right now).
Seeing as I don't have any sort of speaker/audio out option on the digital output, it looks like the onboard audio won't send an audio stream over spdif. I bet when I connect the Display and play a movie it will send everything over the digital channel. If it only sends video then I will suspect audio DRM.
Seems sort of foolish to not to have an option to redirect audio streams to the connector of choice.
