Original complaint:
>Tried alsa version 1.0.5a and myth with alsa's bt87x driver also 
>loses sound after a while. This time the box recorded about 40 shows

>over 3 days before the sound crapped out. There are two 87x video 
>capture cards and the bug will hit either one randomly. When the 
>sound dies, the error logs fill with: 
>  only read -1 from 4096 bytes from '/dev/dsp1' 
>  read audio: Input/output error

Using OSS driver btaudio instead of alsa drivers seems to have
corrected the problem.  I changed the drivers last wednesday (today
is monday) and the sound hasn't crapped out since.
