Happy New Year to you all.

I finally have FC4 running on my Mac Mini.
MythTV is installed but I am having several issues.

First, MythMusic emits just a horrible blast of static, even if the
volume control is set to mute.
Any one got this running?

Multimedia Systems Selector is all set to Alsa.
I managed to get MythVideo working by adding the -ao alsa switch. 
Not really seeing where I could enter this for MythMusic. 


Second, Watch TV kills Myth.

Well, I think that will do it for now! Any ideas, folks?
I'd hate to come this far just to have to reload OS X!
I can not stand iTunes and am dying to get MythMusic rolling again.

Thanks for any and all help.
