I don't yet see a v4l2-ctl option to un-mute the audio, but I don't think that's really the problem. I would expect muting to be an output function, and at any rate the audio standard should have been correctly detected. Getting something into the svideo/audio inputs will take a little more round-tuit work that I've been meaning to do for a long time. This may constitute extra incentive.
