(Just had a quick look for you, seems they removed the toslink after around 2015. Shame, guess it was a rarely used feature, but still useful).
OK - I eventually realised that the volume for OPTICAL is controlled by the SPARK OSX app.
Re: the Digital output on the Mac - it does require the little known adapter. Have been using them since 2012. The MacBook unfortunately does not have DIGITAL out even with the adapter. Haven't tried it on the MB Touch Bar either
