Do you have ALSA's OSS emulation modules loaded for your sound card,
and have Line-In set for capture (at a suitable level) and muted? You
do not want to hear the 'live' audio from the capture card when
watching LiveTV, but the captured and encoded audio recorded by MythTV
which is then played from MythTV via your PCM output. You should not
hear any audio directly from Line-In.
