Does Radeon HD 6870 support multiple audio outs?

Hello,

I'm trying to get audio out from the different outputs on my Sapphire HD 6870. This is the setup I have right now:

HDMI out > powered HDMI 1.4a splitter > (1)HK AVR 254 & (2)Asus VE278Q LCD monitor

DVI out > DVI-to-HDMI adapter > Sony KDL-60EX720 HDTV

This works OK and I get audio for both the 254 receiver and the Asus monitor but I don't get 3D for blu-ray because the Sony TV is not connected via HDMI. If I switch the 2 outputs and connect the Sony TV via HDMI out directly, then I can get blu-ray 3D but I don't get audio out from the DVI connection to the AVR 254 receiver. No matter what combination I use, I only see one audio (HDMI) connection in "playback devices"

My question is this: Does the HD 6780 support simultaneous audio outs from its 3 outputs(HDMI/DVI/DP)?

My goal is to have this setup:

HDMI out > Sony TV (for BD 3D)
DVI out > DVI-to-HDMI adapter > HK AVR 254 (HD audio)
DP out > Asus VE278Q LCD monitor w/speakers (w/audio out)

Is this possible with the 6870 or any other AMD card?

I have a GTX 470 that can have multiple audio outs but it doesn't bitstream HD audio and have handshaking problems with the HDMI splitter, that's why I thought to give AMD cards a try.

Thanks in advance.
