I also HAD the same problem. I solved it by going to mythfrontend setup.
Selecting "Tv settings" and going to "recording". Then I chanded all the
recording samplerates from the default 32000Hz to 44100Hz.
	It seems like my soundcard doesn't know how to handle the 32kHz
and that makes lame crash. ( Does your hardware understand this
32kHz? )

	Anyway, Now my lame is working fine :)

Hopefully this helps :)
