This happened to me. It was because I'd compiled (via a Gentoo ebuild)
0.19 without OSS sound but I was using /dev/dsp as the sound device
for my capture card. Sound in MythMusic, MythVideo, and playback of
existing recordings worked fine but Live TV had no sound.

I'm not sure if I could have changed that setting - I just recompiled
with OSS on.
