XBMCbuntu Frodo 12.2 no Sound over SPDIF after upgrade

I recently upgraded to XBMC Frodo 12.2 and lost my sound over SPDIF. The option for SPDIF wasn’t available in the options.

After some searching around, I found the following forum post;

Which suggested;

1. Set speaker config to 2.0 or 2.1 in XBMC.
2. Set speaker config to 2.0 in osx audio-midi-setup
3. Activate AC3 and DTS options in XBMC
4. Disable LPCM otption in XBMC

Done
