[mythtv-users] Optical digital capture problems with Audigy 2

I'm hoping this is just going to be a case of me not
knowing what I'm doing...  

I've gotten Myth compiled and installed with Alsa
1.0.6a.  I'm using an Audigy 2 Platinum with Live
drive.  I've got the optical input hooked to my
DirecTV receiver, and the optical output going to my
stereo reciever.

I have sound on the stereo, I can play wav files,
mp3's etc. without any problem, and from within Myth,
I can play music, so output seems fine.  However when
I watch live TV, nothing.  No sound at all.  But this
is where it gets fun, in alsamixer, I can turn up the
volume to any of the 3 audio inputs I've hooked up
(I've been at this a while), and I get live TV sound,
so input seems OK as well.  So I think my capture
settings are incorrect in Myth, it's currently set to
/dev/dsp, but I've also tried ALSA:default.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in
advance.

David
