[mythtv-users] No sound on certian channels

When myth records certian channels there is no sound.  I have an Avermedia 
Studio card (BT8xx).  I remember having a similar problem with xawtv.  
Could someone direct me to the cause and possilby a solution to this 
problem.  I currently capture sound on the oss driver via a cable for the 
line out on my capture card to the line-in on my sound card.  I currently 
have not specific module settings, I let everything auto load.  Another 
thing I have noticed, is that the channels that have the problem are in 
the VHF frequency range, UHF seems to be OK.  I have regular analog cable.

Here is some information that might point to what I did wrong.
