Yep. I realize that some of the switches are just switches.  I guess the
thing that confuses me is that mplayer doesn't have this problem while myth
does.  After I play a recording it myth, audio seems to "reset itself" to
being disabled.   I can play the same file over and over again with no audio
muting problems, so I'm guessing mplayer does some sort of setup that myth
doesn't.

In alsa mixer, the only thing displayed for the HDMI card is the IEC958, so
I'm not sure what other settings I can change.

I did a bit of googling and couldn't find any references to a "channel
change script" for recording playback so it sounds like I am stuck unless I
want to hack at the myth code.
