I have been seeing this problem as well, been struggling with it for
past few weeks.  At first, I thought it was my motherboard chipset,
then I thought it was the sound card.  Then I started looking at the
MythTV source code.

Let me ask a question - do you see this error if you play an HD
recording from the beginning (not a bookmark) but without skipping
forward or backward?

For my personal situation, I currently suspect the problem is due to
faulty firewire capture...
