It works as long as you configure the digital paths correctly. Its a bit non-intuitive so the best bet is to connect and start messing with it until it works(and save screen captures of the correct config). I am away from my rig so here is some "from the hip" guidance:
1-Open Setup>Hardware and select the HD IO(if its the only interface, it is likely already selected)
2-click on the last tab("Digital"?) and set the format to AES
3-click the first tab and set paths 9-16 to AES pairs
I went thru a similar issue to get the lightpipe IO working and the solution was pretty much as above, substituting ADAT for AES
Saving screen shots of the correct settings(once you have it all testing good) will save time in the future(note that trashing prefs will default those settings, requiring a re-visit)
