My ~/.asoundrc actually looks like so
  pcm.!default {
  type hw
  card 0
  device 3
  }

  pcm.!default {
  type plug
  slave.pcm "hdmi"
  }

But given that we are dealing with the mythtv user, the fact that it is in
~/.asoundrc should make no difference to the fact that Internal is not
playing sound - see http://wiki.debian.org/ALSA
I have changed the settings to reflect ALSA:hw:0,3 and still no sound in
Internal. I'll make the change to /etc/asound.conf to see what happens.
