I've ditched my cheap WinTV card and plugged in a PVR-150.

I am using the using the ivtv 4.1 driversand followed the HOWTOs that I 
could find....  And recordings are failing with

2006-02-18 08:25:02.650 NVR: Error, unknown audio codec
2006-02-18 08:25:02.753 NVR: Error, cannot open DSP '/dev/dsp'
open: No such device
2006-02-18 08:25:02.753 NVR: Could not detect audio blocksize
2006-02-18 08:25:02.754 Channel(/dev/video0)::CheckSignalFull(): input = 0
2006-02-18 08:25:02.778 Commercial Detection initialized: width = 480, 
height = 480, fps = 29.97, method = 1
2006-02-18 08:25:02.779 Using Sample Spacing of 4 horizontal & 4 
vertical pixels.
2006-02-18 08:25:02.782 CommDetect::ClearAllMaps()
2006-02-18 08:25:02.785 NVR: Won't work with the streaming interface, 
falling back
VIDOCGMBUF:: Invalid argument
2006-02-18 08:25:02.820 NVR: Cannot open DSP '/dev/dsp', exiting

But I can't find a) any mention of audio modules that need to be 
inserted, or b) any mention of sound setup for the PVR150 in any 
howto....  From this I assume that it's just supposed to work, but 
obviously I am missing something....

I've googled all over the place, and no joy.

Any ideas?
