[mythtv-users] pctv 800i audio problem

[Mike Adolf]

Hi

I tried to get my pctv 800i card working on Ubuntu 8.04.  But after 
reading that the best solution was to install a new generic kernel, I 
decided to wait until Intrepid (8.10) came out.  I loaded the firmware 
as recommended on mythtv wiki and was excited to see a sharp analogue 
picture. But, no audio.  Audio works on all other applications.  Knowing 
what to try to fix it is well beyond my linux knowledge. I figured there 
are many tuner experts on this list that might help.  Please help from 
going back to Windows!

dmesg is full of this:

What's with the three occurrences of cx[88] on 17?

Anything I can try?
