SPDIF is digital, and will not connect directly to headphones of basically any kind. It is for connecting the computer to a separate receiver or amplifier, rather than directly to a listening device. Honestly, your best bet is to just use the USB plug, or to get some different headphones with the standard analog connection. Either way, you won't use the spdif.
