sorry that i am not able to help you on this, but i do want to ask...
how did you manage to get the tv sound through the pvr-350 and all the
other sound through the soundcard?  i have ripped dvds to a server in
the basement and would like to play those with the soundcard, but use
the pvr-350 to play regular tv.  it seems though, with myth-0.20, that
if i say "use pvr-350 hardware decoding" it puts all output that is
mpeg2 (including my dvds) through the pvr-350.
