I am experiencing a problem similar to yours with a PVR-500 that I loose
sound on one of the tuners when I come backup on after I do a reboot or a
shutdown. I have to disconnect the power to the back of my box for 60
seconds or so then plug it back in and it works fine. You may want to give
it a try and see if it helps any. Good luck and make sure you post what you
do to fix the problem.
