What I want in a new receiver is a component input channel to which I
can assign optical 5.1 digital but will also default to an analog
signal if no digital signal is present.

Try the Pioneer VSX-1014... it has an "Auto" mode which will detect which
signal is available.

Also... what receiver are you using for digital TV? My digital cable box is
able to output 2-channel as well as digital signals through it's optical
output.
