Greetings ---
I've been running my Myth box for almost 5 years now. Have always used the
motherboard audio output, but the quality just isn't there (lots of
scratching and buzzing, CPU noise, etc).
Upon a recommendation, i picked up a USB audio adapter.

Was plug-n-play in linux. Just turned off the motherboard audio in the bios,
plugged it in and rebooted. Anybody using /dev/dsp outputs correctly. And
the output quality is waaaaay better than anything i ever got from the
onboard sound :)
The problem: the mixer in myth no longer has any effect, so i can't use the
volume controls within mythtv.
I've tried:
Audio Output Device: /dev/dsp or ALSA:default
Mixer Device: /dev/mixer or ALSA:deafult
No luck. A bit stuck where to start looking. Suggestions most welcome :)
cheers - j
