Just in case anyone is interested, right now I'm playing a mpeg2 file
recorded using a slightly modified version of the yuan patched ivtv driver
and audio is working!

AVerMedia has been very helpful in providing information and I was able
to get audio out of the card a little earlier tonight.  I'll try to get
a patch or tarball up tonight or tomorrow on the ivtv list.  I think the
yuan patch is based off a month-old ivtv release so it the tarball
probably has a lot of bugs that have been fixed in the last month.
