"Finished" my new myth install last night, and there's no sound. The simple explanation might be that I didn't install alsa, trying instead to get it to work with just the nvidia driver. So, I emerge'd alsa-tools (it's a gentoo system) and loaded alsa (/etc/init.d/alsasound start), and adjusted my sound settings using alsamixer - but nothing. Now, I don't have alsa in my "USE" flags, so mayber that's it, but I'm not sure what else to try next to get this working. Anyone?
Is it that sound is just not working in Myth or sound is not working at all?
Sound in Myth required some additional configuration changes for me. For example I couldn't bring sound in through my capture card, so I had to bring it in through standard line-in. Then you would have to make sure you check off the capture setting for line-in in alsamixer.
I'm also fairly sure I had to change the default permissions udev gave to /dev/sound.
