With my Tascam interface you cannot hear the SPDIF signal in the monitor and headphones. Only the analog inputs.
I guess it's because the SPDIF bypasses all the Tascam's analog circuits, so they would have needed to have added another D/A converter.
PS there's a forum for the x series this is for the older versions of Sonar. It's not very clear by the title but they will never change it.
