So, after seeing this thread: SB16 CT2230 Issue and checking some of the links OP there posted, I put jumpers on the IFSD and APSD pins and now digital audio on my SB16 works fine. Yay! That does not eliminate the fact that it is kind of a PoS, but it works and it can be used if I want/need to.

This I wouldn't expect, as CT2950 lacks even the CSP socket, so I would expect the IFSD and APSD jumpers to be hardwired in the "disable" position...
but no, the jumpers obviously are there, so it's possible to enable the CSP that can't exist 😁

That's correct, no unpopulated sockets on the CT2950, so nothing that can be added to it easily (there is a space to solder a chip/socket, but it has lots of legs), however the jumpers are there. I think I'll remove them and solder jumper wires in place, that will free 2 jumper caps for future use, 🤣.
