Serato Virtual Audio (Serato Studio 1.6.0 or later) macOS users on Serato Studio 1.5.8 and earlier will need to continue using iShowU, or upgrade to the latest Serato Studio release, which we strongly recommend.

Once I restart the Audo MIDI Setup my iMac has reset the audio back to 2-channel 24-bit. One immediate hint about problems setting up “Encoded Digital Audio” is that I cannot configure speakers for 5.1, only stereo, no matter what I do. All steps seem fine until setting “Encoded Digital Audio” I get silence through my Toslink cable after doing that.
