Hello. I have a PixelView PlayTV Pro PV-BT878P+ Rev. 8E installed in my system, which runs the kernel gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.0. The soundcard is a C-Media CM8738, driven by Alsa. The TV card works perfectly, but without sound. With the kernel gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r8 it does have no problems with audio. I have noticed that with the 2.4.20 kernel, no tvaudio module is loaded (so I assume it is not needed). Would something changed with the new kernel and I have missed it? Any clues?
