Well I found my audio problem. It was the ivtv msp3400 problem... I 
upgraded my kernel after I sent off my patches a couple days ago. But 
recent versions of ivtv do not overwrite the kernel's msp3400 with their 
own, but instead place it in a different directory. So I had two copies 
of msp3400, and depending on which scripts I used to load the ivtv 
driver I had working sound or not. I just happened to test ones with 
good sound with mplayer. After deleting the kernel's msp3400 all my 
recordings have working sound.

I'll review your patch now...
