I have two blu-ray players (Sony, Samsung) and a DVD player (Toshiba).
All have optical out.
All have the menu option to restrict the digital out to basic 2-channel PCM which would be exactly the same as what would be sent by a CD player with optical out, and have been usable as such with standard 2-channel equipment.
To reassure yourself, you could download the manual of the player you intend to buy - they tend to be easily available as PDFs on the web.
