We are a couple of people on this list trying to get Mythtv running
smoothly on the Pundit-R but we are having problems the prebuffering issue
on the atiixp driver. How did you force mythtv to use the alsa driver
directly instead of the oss emulation ? If you could post any .asoundrc
file or equivalent necessary i would be greatly appreciated.

The pre-buffer pauses on a pundit-r are audio related. There is some
sort of bug with the alsa (atiixp) audio driver or the OSS emulation.
You can see the pre-buffer pauses when you use /dev/dsp as audio device.
I solved them for now switching to ALSA audio out.
