Hi,

I have a huge problem.

I have hooked up a 2009 Mac Mini (2.16, 4 gb RAM, SL 10.6.3) to my sony receiver.
When using an analogue cable, it works, but in stereo of course.
I plugged in a tosslink optical cable, and nothing happened, so I thought maybe the cable is broken, so I bought a new one.
So when I plugged it in, it worked....for about 2 hours.
Since then, I had no luck whatsoever, no sound, nothing, nada.
I tried using the cable with my macbook, worked like a charm.
Several reboots and a pram reset later, same thing, no sound.
I checked the settings, but there's nothing really to change there, it's set to digital out and that's it.

I even tried a ridiculously long terminal command to reset core audio, to no avail.

so, any ideas?

help would be greatly appreciated

Can't say that I have any experience with this, but have you looked at the Audio MIDI Setup utility in your Utilities folder?
