    This is crazy stuff.  I decide to pull it out of its environment (garage) and try hooking up to the living room system.  Different receiver and all.  The garage system has a really old A/V receiver (Denon AVR-5600) — I know, the thing is a dinosaur, but it is a really nice amp and for basic use in the garage, what the heck.  So, I hook it up to the Yamaha HTR-5063 in the living room, and… it works right away…

    So… I put the HTPC back in the garage and it works there too.  Still using the Realtek Digital Output (not optical) of course, so that problem is still there.  Maybe there is some soft of cabling issue here.  I’m using a new cable from monoprice, which BTW, I opted for their premium cables (still good price) but I really do not like the ends they put on them.  I guess I will try their non-premium ones next — they are quite large, and on a system like the DH67CF the end touches the very edge of the I/O shield.  Same goes for hooking up large HDMI ends on this board.  It looks to me like Intel could have raised the whole set of hookups in the I/O shield by 3/16″ or so…

    Anybody also have a DH67CF that can try optical just to verify the output mix-up in control panel?

    At least now I can contact Intel and say it is working again, just with the wrong selection in control panel.
