I've had the same issue for ages but never bothered about it until your 
post made me start monkeying around a bit and managed to get music 
working via mythweb for the first time since I set up this system nearly 
a year ago.

In my case, I found that the first uncommented line in 
mythweb.conf.apache was pointing incorrectly to:

<Directory "/var/www/html" >

when my mythweb files were in fact in:

<Directory "/var/www/" >

(yours may differ). Having made that change, voila - streaming music!

Not sure if that'll solve your problem, but here's hoping!

Cheers!

Martin
