as far as i remember is SPdif as a digital output not volume-related. so you can only adjust the volume @ your external receiver... not 100% sure though

If you are playing a DVD you can not change the volume, since the packed Dolby Digital stream (with its volume level) is sent directly to the receiver (passthrough) from the DVD player.
Normal stereo sound that is going through the Windows mixer (such as an mp3 or your live TV etc.) can have its volume level changed before being sent to the receiver from your sound card. Therefore it can be changed.

If I have misunderstood all this, please enlighten me
