Don't know what you mean with "CD playback", my Audiophile doesn't have
connectors for an internal CDROM. Check out the .asoundrc files over
here (sorry, long url):

  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Midiman%2FMAudio&card=Delta+Audiophile+2496.&chip=ICE1712+%28Envy24%29&module=ice1712

I use this .asoundrc to be able to record from the S/PDIF input:

# Midiman Audiophile 2496
pcm.ice1712 {
    type hw
    card 0
}

ctl.ice1712 {
    type hw
    card 0
}

# Plug device for 2 channel S/PDIF input
pcm.ice_spdif {
    type plug
    ttable.0.8 1
    ttable.1.9 1
    slave.pcm {
        type hw
        card 0
        device 0
    }
}
