A SCART lead is a purely analogue affair therefore no digital from that.  
Assuming the digibox has any kind of digital sound output you will want either 
one of these two types of cable assuming your "sound bar" device has one as 
well.

A TOSLINK optical cable
Or
A coaxial phono cable

A good Hi-Fi shop or Maplin should be able to sell you one.

Subject: [access-uk] scart lead with optical output?

Hi

I've just had my goodmans freeview box installed by the switchover 
team and all is working fine. However I would like to link this up to 
my audio soundbar to obtain a richer sound than from my TV. I heard 
on the list some time ago that a scart lead/plug is available with an 
optical output, I know nothing of these and whether they have an 
optical output incorporated into the scart to scart lead or whether I 
would need to plug it into the second scart socket on the freeview 
box. Can anyone out there give any advice.

Thanks
Martin
