[mythtv-users] Problem: Mixer Mute Kills PVR Audio

I have seen several postings with the same problem.  Configurations are not 
the same.  Problem summation is as follows:

PVR records no audio when the capture line is muted (microphone or line-in). 
  "Pseudo-live" video and audio are in sync, but true live audio leads video 
by a few senconds (echo; live audio leading recorded audio).  Once I mute 
the capture line, the recorded audio continues for a few seconds and cuts 
out at the point where the true live audio was muted.

I have been through the entire ALSA setup and have installed/compiled 
sucessfully.  This does not seem to be an isolated problem and is not 
confined to a single configuration, although most of the posts I have seen 
involve AMD processors (mine is Athalon+XP 2400, Hauppage WinTV-Go, C-Media 
8738).  No one seems to have a good handle on this problem yet and it is 
beyond my technical ability to solve at this point.  I am still trying 
btaudio, but documenation is slim.  Has anyone found a workaround for this 
one?  If so, please afford widest possible dissemination.  Thank you in 
advance for your attention.

Steven B.
