I tried this also

 sox -w -r 441000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp -t ossdsp /dev/dsp

and got the same result. Works fine for everything but myth.

I am using

snd-hda-intel, model=ref

from latest alsa driver (1.0.14 rc3).

I think it is a question of time until alsa implements the line in channel,
but I really do not understand why the work around did not work for myth.

Everything else is working just fine. Only the sound while watching TV is
missing.

Thanks for the help.
