[mythtv] CVS and dvb audio problems

[Staffan Pettersson]

Hi

I successfully got ac3 audio working in myth using ALSA:spdif output device :=)
But it produced other problems.

1, If i tune to a channel with ac3 audio and then change to a mpeg audio
channel, mythfrontend does'nt seem to reinit audio and no sound is produced.

2. If a use ALSA:spdif, i never gets sound on two channels that have very low
bitrate (Discovery channel and Animal planet)

Can it be a configuration error from my part?
I´m using a sblive with latest alsa drivers.

Here is a mythfrontend log for the 2 problem:
