Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV

Could not detect audio blocksize
Cannot open DSP '', exitingaudio volume set to '32768'
Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None


from mythfrontend:

connecting to backend server: 127.0.0.1:6543
Unable to open mixer: '/dev/mixer'
Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
player: Can't open audio device: /dev/dsp
open audio:: No such file or directory


everything works with alsa.  muted line in and set it to record device.
can test the driver with a .wav file.

 - however, when I run ./setup and go to capture card, it won't let me
choose /dev/dsp for an audio source.  before I switched from OSS to
alsa, /dev/dsp WAS an option.  do i need to recompile the whole mythtv
program now that i switched to alsa?  i don't think i should have to do
I??  it's just weird how /dev/dsp is apparently gone.

i knew i would have problems running mythfrontend but i was too
curious.  obvously it is having problems finding audio and then kicks me
out when it doesn't.
