Currently I have only analog 3.5mm-> RCA audio from my HTPC split into my receiver and whole house amplifier.
This is fine for my music although I would like to use XLobby for my DVD playback and I would like to have a pass though 5.1 signal from my HTPC into my receiver.
Is this possible to accomplish with a hardware solution?
I was thinking about using this:

Setting my HTPC to output a Coax digital audio signal:
end 1 ) to an RCA splitter -> DAC (linked above) -> my whole house amplifier
end 2) directly to my 5.1 receiver
Will this even work? Will I get an simultaneous audio signal though the RCA splitter?
