I installed hda-jack-retask as suggested and got it working with the
default kernel (3.2.0-55-generic), finally! The created files have been
slightly modified (cleaned up), so the workaround looks as follows:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/hda-jack-retask.conf 
# This file was added by the program 'hda-jack-retask'.
# If you want to revert the changes made by this program, you can simply erase this file and reboot your computer.
options snd-hda-intel patch=hda-jack-retask.fw

$ cat /lib/firmware/hda-jack-retask.fw 
[codec]
0x10ec0268 0x10250139 0

[pincfg]
0x1e 0x014b1180

With that config, pin 0x1e will be connected to S/PDIF out - et voilà.
Thanks a lot for pointing this out, Raymond!

I also wrote a mail to the author to have it fixed in a future kernel
release.

Title:
  Acer TravelMate 6293 - no s/pdif (iec958) anymore since Ubuntu 12.04
  LTS

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since upgrading to Precise the IEC958 setting is missing when opening 'alsamixer', resulting in no S/PDIF output signal at all. Prior to that, it was possible to add the ALC267/268 module option "snd-hda-intel model=zepto" to forcible activate the S/PDIF support, but this parameter has been vanished with kernel version 3.2.x. When installing a 3.0.x kernel (from Ubuntu 11.10) it works again.
