[mythtv-users] PVR-150 with no sound?!?

I decided to do a major overhaul of my Myth system. I was running FC4 and
MythTV 0.19-fixes but I decided to start over and install Ubuntu Edgy and
Myth TV 0.20 (keeping the database and video files though).
I got most of it done in one night but now I'm spending quite a bit of time
on tracking down frustrating issues. I've actually been making reasonable
progress but I'm a bit stuck now and looking for any ideas people might
have.
My most recent issue was that I have a bttv card and an ivtv card.
Sometimes the ivtv would be /dev/video0 and other times it would be
/dev/video1. I added something to /etc/modprobe.d to try and sort that out
and it seems to work. But now I don't have any audio. I'm sure the audio
is working because I can hear sounds from the Gnome desktop. But when I run
'mplayer /dev/video0' or try to watch live TV from Myth, I don't hear
anything. I have confirmed that the frontend can produce sound by watching
an old recording so it would appear that the issue can be narrowed down to
the output from /dev/video0?!?
Under the Audio settings in the front end, I have:
Output device: /dev/dsp
passthrough device: default
mixer device: /dev/mixer
I assume these are all irrelevant since "mplayer /dev/video0" has no sound
either, correct?
I tried Googling on this, but there were a bunch of sound issues with the
PVR-150 back in IVTV-0.4.0 and I can't find anything relevant because of all
the hits I get related to those issues.
I tried the alsamixer (i.e. I unmuted things and turned stuff up...no
effect).
Here is the output from "ivtvctl --log-status" if that helps (I'm doing NTSC
capture).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. At this point, I feel like I have
exhausted my diagnostic possibilities.
