I have a PS3 that is connected to a 1080P Samsung via
HDMI and an optical connection to a Sony receiver.
I get a fantastic picture on the Samsung(Black Hawk Down
is a great transfer).....but I can not get the PS3 to
allow a setting of DD5.1 or DTS to be output via the optical
to the Sony receiver?
Anyone have a solution?

Mine worked (I think). PS3 with HDMI direct to Toshiba 72HM196 and optical to Yamaha RX-V1600.
In the PS3 -> Settings -> Sound Settings -> Digital Optical, select Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby DTS.
On my receiver, I have to hit the Straight Effect button to use the inbound Dolby rather than the receiver soundfield processor.
Of course, I could be talking out of my butt so YMMV.
