You just connect the speakers to the sound card and work as normal. You do
not need a jumper cable from the tv card to the sound card's line in.

With a 350 it is possible to push the video back throught the card and the
video and audio come out of the PVR card, on the scart cable. But it is
not very well supported under Linux, there is no alsa mixer for the
PVR-350 so the volume levels need to be controlled by the TV (or amp).

The sound and video are captured in a mpeg stream and played back with
mplayer or xine. BTW I was confused at first.
