 works as advertized December 13, 2008
bagdropper (Cedar Rapids IA)
Since I bought the wrong (at least I thought) sound card (thought it had onboard optical output), had to get this, and it works...My mistake cost me the price of this gizmo, but the gizmo itself works just fine.
 Pay Attention to Speaker Settings November 28, 2008

This was posted a year ago, but is the RESOLUTION to using this module. No where is this documented via Soundblaster site, but I too after wasting hours of time getting this module to work, read this comment and problem resolved. Good Job to original poster.
************COPY*********
The bottom line to get the Digital I/O module working is to use Control Panel->Sound. Find your speakers and click Properties. On the Custom tab click Digital Only. The analog speakers will be disabled but the Digital I/O will work.
BTW: If you want to record PC audio connect the coaxial input to the coaxial output and make sure you turn up the input gain to 100%. You can use any sound recorder (including the free one that comes with Vista) to make high quality digital recordings.
 Providing only PCM (stereo) output September 24, 2008
Mathan Arulanandam
I am breaking my head on how to get Dolby/DTS/5.1 output from this module. Looks like we can not. It just converts the analog stereo to digital stereo. I tried all the settings in my onkyo reciever including direct channel. But, when i tried the test sounds (from the sound blaster control software), only the front left and right speakers play. The rest remains mute. You get the output when you enable the "Digital output only" from the sound control panel. But, the output is just PCM.
Not for optical S/PDIF !!!! August 31, 2008

This product may be great.. but it does not connect to optical S/PDIF connections. So for instance it will do absolutely nothing for the Creative X-Fi extreme ausio notebook..
 NOT for dolby system! August 13, 2008

Creative labs X-FI series does NOT support dolby 5.1 on the digital out and their cards will NOT decode 5.1 on the digital IN.
Why did I get this again?
If all you need is a stereo in/out then this works fine.
Who would buy a X-FI to do stereo.
See my review of the Fatal1ty sound card for more detail.
Documentation? We don't need none of *that* apparently!
I am quickly losing faith in Creative Labs....
