I am running MythTV 0.17. I did my install using Jarod's guide on FC3.

Everything works fabulous, but I am finding that when I change channels, my
volume drops real low. If I do a alsactl restore, my volume comes back to
where it should be. If I change the channel again, the volume drops again.

I set up a cron job to do the alsactl restore every minute, but that really
doesn't work great.

Any ideas?
Myth remembers the last volume you used /within Myth/. Therefore, when you circumvent Myth in changing the volume (i.e. alsactl restore or amixer or alsamixer), the next time Myth sets the volume, it goes to the one it remembers.

So, either commit to never using Myth to change volume (disable "Use internal volume controls" in setup), or use Myth to change volume (F10/F11).

My recommendation, disable the alsactrl cron job and start up Myth LiveTV or a recording playback and press F11 until you get the volume you want. Change channels or exit and start a new recording and enjoy.
