[mythtv-users] Small Audio Problem

I am running gentoo on two machines, the master backend having ac97 sound with a 2.6.5 love sources kernel and alsa drivers using a flyvideo 3000 for its tv, the other is just a network slave which runs a front end for myth. Neither have sound while watching tv.

After doing alot of reading i discovered that using the TV (mono) source instead of TV (stereo) helped, now when mythbackend is running I can 'aplay /dev/dsp' to listen to tv, weirdly enough all the setting in the fronend are set to /dev/dsp also, but i get no sound.  My alsamixer settings seem to be correct with line and capture being set to captur, line is muted.

I've been trying this for several days now with no luck on either computer and i'm guessing its a small annoying thing I'm missing.  Any insight to my problem would be great

Thanks
