Received the solution for my problem by email; here it is.
Thanks Tony!  Sorry, I am not experiencing the problem with loss of analog 
audio upon changing channels, perhaps someone else is.

I am seeing the same exact problem, but I also had this in 0.19. I am
running SUSE 10.1  FE/BE. I have tried everything you listed and all
to no avail.  Additionally, when I change channels, while watching
live TV, I lose sound on all analog channels, the digital channels
work fine.  I must change channel to the analog channel I want to
watch, exit to the main menu and then back into Watch TV, to get the
sound back.  If I change channels, all analog sound is gone.

When I lose sound, the backend reports:

     NVR(/dev/video0) Error: DQBUF ioctl failed.  eno: Invalid
argument (22)


It then starts reporting every 4 or 5 seconds something like (Sorry I
didn’t copy the exact message):

     Only read -1 bytes of 5456 bytes from '/dev/dsp1

But I have an update from when I wrote this. I fixed my sound quality
problem.  Ont the front end, Utilities/Setup - Setup - TV Settings -
Recording Profiles - Software Encoder (v4l based)

I believe the real problem was with the Live TV setting, last page,
mine was set to MP3 for the codec. to be safe, I changes all to
Uncompressed 48000.

Let me know if that works for you.  Maybe post to the list if it does,
also I still lose audio if I change channels, any suggestions?
