Unless they added extra hardware for this, you still will not be able
to output an AC3 stream with this card.
The AV7110 just cannot output anything but PCM via SPDIF.

In any case, this is not supported by the driver. I never saw the new
card. If anybody who has it sees any "AC3 enhancements" (no, just the
output connector does not count) please let us know.
