Here it is 

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/archive/MythTV_C2/Users_F11/magic_btaudio_incantation_%3B-)_P73630/

Hi.

The magic in using a live and btaudio is probing your mixer first so as
to let it grab dev/dsp0 first. I'm using alsa and rh9 - pvr 250 and a
tvwonder. Nforce 2 mb. Using the live for the digital out so as to go
upstairs to the entertainment system with the picture and remote.

Here is mine (messy but hey - need to wash my car too.)

[root at linuxbox root]# cat /etc/modules.conf

alias char-major-188 off

pre-install btaudio modprobe snd-pcm-oss

alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c

# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv

Hope this helps. Forget where I got this from but it made all the
difference. Also change your setting in mythtvsetup ( to /dev/dsp1) for
your tuner.
