#31 Audigy digital output

[Anonymous]

Greets!

I have an SB Audigy, using a Live Drive from the SB
Live Platinum card - together with the Cambridge
SoundWorks DTT3500 Digital speaker set. I am not
certain where this problem erupted, but my problem is
like this:

Whenever I don't set the SPDIF Bypass in Device
Controls in Windows my speakers give me a slight "tick"
sound here and there. It distorts the sound, and is
quite annoying. When I installed the audigy drivers for
linux, I started to experience the same problem here -
and I can't figure out a way to correct the problem
entirely, nor can I manage to figure out how to enable
an option somewhat like the option "SPDIF Bypass" in
the Windows drivers..

For the record - this ticking noise is going on whether
or not I am playing something. It's a frequent sound,
like perhaps 1-2 times a second, and the more I turn
the sound vol up, the more clearer I can hear it. I
am experiencing some weird stuff with my DTT3500, so
it might be defect - but I thought someone here might
be so kind as to give me some advice on what to do...

Humble thanks,

This seems quite a common problem... Any ideas Daniel?
