[mythtv-users] Re: No audio after transcode on PVR-350

[Brad DerManouelian]

That's the strange thing. I have my audio card piped into my receiver  
and I don't get audio out of that, either. I also have on-board audio  
that I don't use on my motherboard. I tried plugging that in to see  
if it was being routed that way and still nothing. I'll take a closer  
look at my software mixer settings and see if I just screwed  
something up in there. Do you know what channel that audio should be  
coming through?
