I have the same problem. When watching live TV, if I change the channel
the sound comes on. I have a lot of recordings that don't have sound.
After getting an episode or two of West Wing with no sound my wife is
not recording with the VCR as a backup. WAF is going down.
This seemed to happen after I did a distribution updagte, so I assume
it is a driver issue.
As a work around, I use a cronjob to unmute the driver. I was doing it
every half hour, but sometimes that didn't work if I was watching
something else at the same time. So now I do it every minute in my crontab.

I am going to try upgrading ivtv soon to see if the problem gets fixed.
