Raymond: thank you for your time and effort!
Following your advice I was able to configure iec958:CARD=U7 and point it at
the correct hardware device.
The following aplay command goes to the digital output:
$ aplay -D iec958:CARD=U7 test.wav
However, the pulseaudio still redirects both, Analog and Digital (S/PDIF)
outputs to the same analog output.
There are no special characters in the card name.
Here is an excerpt from /usr/share/alsa/cards/USB-Audio.conf:
USB-Audio.pcm.iec958_device {
"Xonar U7" 1
...
}
The outputs of pactl list and aplay -L are attached.
So, what shall I do with pulseaudio to recognize the iec958 output?

Title:
Asus Xonar U7 S/PDIF output not recognized by pulseaudio
Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The external USB audio card Asus Xonar U7 is capable of both analog and
digital output.
ALSA name for the digital (S/PDIF) output is hw:1,1, and it is listed in
aplay -l output, and aplay can output to it:
aplay -D plughw:1,1 sample.wav. So, direct alsa sound works fine.
However, pulseadio does not recognize the digital output of Xonar U7,
it offers only analog output.
