[mythtv-users] Sound Issues

[Cyber Source]

I have the EXACT same problem, should say, had. Now I get no sound at 
all for live tv, and I have played with everything. This happened to me 
before on this box (with the sblive card) and something happened (or i 
did) that made it work, and I cant remember what that was. I have an 
onboard AC97 sound on this mobo that I am tempted to use and pull the 
sblive card out, but I wanted to keep the sblive because my onboard 
sound has no game port. I will probably yank that sblive card though 
because it is driving me nuts.
