You definitely need to have ALSA modprobe first.

Try building the BT848 mixer module (tvmixer.o) and the BT848 audio
capture module (btaudio.o) and modprobing those as well.
Set "options tvmixer devnr=2" to make sure everything gets a valid mixer
device.

gmix will then pick up all three mixers, which makes life very nice. :)

modprobe all the ALSA modules at bootup, then do an "alsactl restore" at
the end of your startup sequence.

(I'm not using kmod, so I don't know whether it might accidentally
 remove the ALSA modules at an inconvenient time.  There's probably a
 way to prevent that, but I don't know it.)

Hope this helps...
