forgot to list the model number

In my comment below, I should have listed the model number of the monoprice product. What they directed you to is actually the model that I have and I know for a fact that it doesn't work because I've already tested it.

"I have a similar monoprice box -- an HDMI to coax/optical converter (aka HDMI de-embedder) -- and when it's fed Dolby Digital via HDMI, the optical output will be either 5.1 Dolby Digital or 2.0 Dolby Digital (there's a switch). I tested mine last night just in case it could be used to convert Dolby Digital to PCM, but the DAC I tested it with couldn't lock onto the signal, even in 2.0 mode (so it doesn't convert Dolby Digital to PCM)."
