hmmmm. it does work here. no problem.

did you install the ac3overdvb patch? if yes - it should work.
when replaying a ac3-recording you may have to activate the dd audio track
by pressing "menu" and then "green".

dd is available on orf1+2, sat1 and pro7. but not always. the pid of course
is always set. most of the time they send DD2.0 and sometimes AC3 (DD5.1)
