I have a new Onkyo (3008) and no digital music (from HDMI output, per the manual)to zone 2 analog preouts, and I think that applies to zone 2 amplified also.
I have this need also. I'm thinking (for my situ). HDMI from intel core Audio out, then installing the realtek mb soundcard drivers and running analog connects to another input on the rcvr for zone 2, like CD input. (but havent had a chance to go there yet).
Lets keep each other up to date on this "issue"!
