How To Play 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio In QuickTime Mac OS X

Step 3Audio MIDI Setup

Audio MIDI Setup
1: Insert your Toslink cable into the headphone output on your computer. This may require a Mini Toslink to Toslink adaptor (if you have a Mac Pro or Power Mac G5, then insert it into the Toslink output).

2: Open Audio MIDI Setup, located in the utilities folder, in the applications folder.

3: Under audio output, set the format to 48kHz (48000Hz) and 2ch-24bit (don't select encoded digital audio). Most video files will be 48kHz, but some are 44.1kHz, if this is the case, you will need to change the format in Audio MIDI Setup, to 44.1kHz (44100Hz).
