OK, I did some testing.  Don't know if it will help, but here are the results:

Do the following to fail the sound
- Start at channel 2
- Press Up arrow on remote control, repeat until sound gets noisy, repeat until it clears up.  Here's the pattern of works vs. failed (read as three channel changes worked, one failed, seventeen worked, one failed, etc)

3-1-17-1-7-1-11-1-5-1-1-1-11

or, Do the following to fail the sound
- Start at channel 2
- Press "Menu" to access on-screen menu, press "down arrow" to move to the next channel, press "OK" to select new channel.  Repeat until sound gets noisy, repeat until it clears up.  Here's the pattern of works vs. failed (read as eleven channel changes worked, one failed, two worked, one failed, etc)

11-2-2-1-8-1-3-1-12-1-19-1-2


# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 1
- turns the sound off - I assume it set the audio to a different channel

# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0
- restores the sound

If I put the sound into a failed state
# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0
- fixes the sound

# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0
- breaks the sound

# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0
- fixes the sound

If I put the sound into a failed state, repeating this line over and over...
# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0
- usually fixes the sound on the first attempt
- sometimes requires two attempts to fix
- asserting this line seems to fail and fix with the same pattern as the failures from above


Hope this helps,
Don

Thanks John, I saw some of the tinny audio posts, but didn't think they applied to me.  Perhaps I'll try some of the solutions and see if it makes any difference.  It looks like this might have some effect:

ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 1


Thanks again,
Don

Sorry if this doesn't belong on this list, but I thought it might have 
something to do with the ivtv driver.  If not, suggestions would be 
appriciated.  Thanks,

Don,

Search for "tinny audio" on this list, and you'll get more information 
than you probably want.

Post back if you need further input after that... this is by no means a 
"closed issue" with ivtv, but you may find some relief.

Cheers,
john
