How do I enable the optical digital audio input?
I have the Realtek HD audio drivers installed. I can see the "Realtek Digital Input" under recording devices and have it set to my default device.
However, when I feed it an optical digital signal from my external audio source, I get no sound on the input.
I guess my question is, how does the optical connector on the MB know to use it as an input or output? I assume the same optical connector is used for both input and output. Or is there another optical input connector which is separate from the optical output connector?
Basically all I want to do is record a 2 channel 24/96 digital audio signal using Audacity.
Thanks in advance for your help.
