[mythtv-users] ALSA only

[Mark Knecht]

Chris,
   Someone told me something about this a few weeks ago. This is from
memory. Try something like

ALSA:default

or 

ALSA:hw0,0

assuming you want to go to your first sound card, etc.

  Hope this helps. Don't expect too much as I haven't tried this myslef.

Cheers,
Mark
