USB audio vs. analog vs. spdif = confusion

As I was confused as others beginning with OSMC and DACs I would like to share my log and selection:

Some while ago I got an Kebidu 2022 Professional Usb Sound Card 6 Channel 5.1 Optical External Audio Card Converter Cm6206 Chipset For Desktop Tablet - Sound Cards - AliExpress (but from a different store). It work excellent with my RSX-1057 | Rotel by simply setting S/PDIF:

To learn more details I installed alsa-utils - Help and Support / Vero 4K / Vero 4K + - OSMC Forums
Got some guidance hwo to test in USB DAC Problem - Help and Support / Vero 4K / Vero 4K + - OSMC Forums.
Found an answer on ‘surround21’ in Osmc no sound from Audio Usb Pnp Sound device after upgrade to kodi 19 - Help and Support / Raspberry Pi - OSMC Forums

Here are my logs for reference:
