Jacob,

You may wish to lookup a thread on what appears to be this same issue 
back in May 21 .. 24, 2001 between Ben Bridgwater and Eric Jorgensen 
entitled: "STB TV PCI - How to get audio working"... Ben's last post 
described the following:
__________________________________________________________

Just for the record, the particular Gateway OEM variant of the STB
Desktop TV/FM card I have - which is what computergeeks were recently
selling - is working great with bttv and xawtv. Thanks, Gerd, and anyone
else who's worked on this stuff!

This card has the following components:

Tuner: Philips FM1236/F
Video: Bt878KHF
Audio: TDA9850T TDA7432D TEA6420

My module options are:

alias char-major-89     i2c-dev
options i2c-core        i2c_debug=1
options i2c-algo-bit    bit_test=1
 
alias char-major-81     videodev
alias char-major-81-0   bttv
options bttv            card=3 radio=1 bttv_verbose=2
options tuner           type=2 debug=1

(the audio stuff all gets correctly detected and loaded)

Using bttv 0.7.67 (with a rebuilt Mandrake 7.1 2.2.15-4mdk kernel, which
can be cleanly patched with the i2c stack per install method #3), and
xawtv 3.48.

Seeing as my motherboard only has an internal sound header for CD in
(not line in), I just transferred the CD audio cable (which I don't use)
to the TV card.

Now if only the windows driver were so flexible...

Ben

BTW, I haven't had any problems with the windows drivers for my Gateway 
Destination System PCI card if that is what this is..
