That problem used to happened with the ivtv msp3400 as well. The causes
were: stereo detection failing (generally worked around by passing once=1 as
a module param) and the msp ACB wasn't reset after an msp reset (some chips
persist ACB others reinitialize it).

Judging from what changes are present in the 2.6.10 msp3400 it looks like
Gerd Knorr is receptive to fixes. I'm willing to risk a few recordings
without sound in an attempt to track it down if it is a problem.

I'm attaching a patch which does two things:

1) init video_audio before we call msp3400
2) unmute the audio on driver load
0) fix the driver version

Another change not in the kernel msp3400 driver was the msp3400c_setvolume
patch (it should be vol * 0x7F not vol * 0x73 at least according to what
I've seen).

This patch when using the ivtv msp3400 version should do nothing, with the
kernel ivtv recordings will be quieter.
