[mythtv-users] Sound on analog recordings stopped working

[voidtrance at comcast.net]

Hi all, 

Recently, something happened on my MythTV system and sound from any analog (PVR-250) recordings 
stopped working. I say stopped working because I can't think of a single thing that could have caused it. 
It used to work fine. Then I went away on a business trip for a while during which my system was auto-starting, 
doing the recordings, and then shutting down. When I came back, things didn't work. 

I have sound setup through my S/PDIF connector and I have MythTV configured to do AC3 passthrough 
for any digital sound. This works fine because I am able to get sound from LiveTV through my HDHR and 
for any recordings done through the HDHR. 
However, when I switch to LiveTV through any of the PVR-250's (I have 3), there is no sound. The same 
happens for recordings done by the PVRs and any videos that don't have digital sound. 

I have attached an alsa-info.txt file with all the ALSA information. 

The sound settings in my MythTV configuration are the following: 
AudioOutputDevice: ALSA:default 
PassThruOutputDevice: ALSA:iec958:{ AES0 0x02 } 
MixerDevice: ALSA:default 
MixerControl: PSM 

One thing that I noticed is that running: 
aplay -D iec958 <sound file> 
does not produce any sound. Neither does: 
aplay <sound file> 

The commands don't error out. They run and complete successfully. There's just no sound. 

I am running an up-to-date FC10 machine with kernel 2.6.27.37-170.2.104.fc10.x86_64. 

Any idea will be very helpful? Thank you
