I finally worked this out with my WinTV card and onboard Intel sound by pulling up first aumix and then alsamixer as live tv was playing (be sure to turn the volume down, because the wrong combinations can give some fast feedback loops).

I found it easiest first to use aumix to mute line and line1 (if the right one isn't muted, that's where sound will play through even after you quit watching).

Then using alsamixer, use space to set the capture device.  For me, that meant getting 
the red "CAPTUR" above both Capture and Aux.

I hope these steps are generalizable. --Wendy

I am having a similar problem. I get sound just fine in recordings and
live TV but it will not stop when I exit the program. I actually have to
reboot. I have tried those suggestions below with no success. My sound
card is built into the motherboard and is an intel of some kind. Any
other ideas?

I solved my problems with my Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card.

I switched my cable from my Hauppauge WinTV Go card to the MIC input on
my sound card instead of the LINE input on my sound card.  AlsaMixer
showed a MIC output on the Playback screen and a MIC input on the
Capture screen.  I set the MIC output on the Playback screen to 0 volume
and the MIC input on the Capture screen to 75.

Now I hear sound when I watch TV, sound is recorded when I record TV,
and sound stops when I exit TV.  This is the way it is supposed to work.

I could never get this to work by muting LINE on the Playback screen and
turning up ANALOG MIX on the Capture screen.  I have no idea why this
wouldn't work.
