Comment(by paulh):

 MythArchive chooses which audio track(s) to use based on what you have set
 your preferred languages to on Myth's localization settings page. In your
 case there both set to 'spa' so if you wanted to have say both a Spanish
 and English audio tracks you would have to change your secondary language
 preference to 'eng'.

 Unfortunately that wouldn't have made any difference in this case because
 the audio tracks in the original file passed to MythArchive
 (/home/mythtv/Peliculas/1531_20070629215500.mpg) is missing the language
 codes needed to intelligently guess which tracks to include so it just
 adds the track with the lowest PID which should be the primary audio track
 and ignores the second track.

 I can see there may be a case where if there are only two audio tracks and
 neither has a valid language code it should just add both tracks for good
 measure but that would annoy some people here in the UK because the second
 audio track usually has the audio described track which most people don't
 want on there DVD's :-(.
