I'm not sure if it's due to capabilities of my Motorola DCT5100 cable box or not but I don't have the problem you describe. Using only an SPDIF cable connection my 950 will correctly sense the input being fed as either a Dolby Digital or PCM source. All my channels below 100 are analog and thus PCM (100-900 are DD).

This is not the usual audio auto-switching between separate analog and digital connections. All 950 owners know that is a feature missing on the 950.
