Actually, when I think about it, I have just had that happen with my  
PVR350 card a week or so ago.  I was very surprised on viewing a  
programme recorded earlier that day that there was no audio!  I had  
just rebooted the server with the PVR card.  Once I discovered the  
problem I kicked out the ivtv module (i.e. rmmod ivtv) and then  
reinstalled it (modprobe ivtv) and then sound worked again.  I think  
it has happened twice over the last two or so weeks--the first time I  
have ever noticed such a problem in a number of years of using the  
card.  I am running the latest kernel 2.6.34 (and prior to that I was  
sometimes running 2.6.34-rcXes since I was testing some new  
features).  Maybe a problem in the kernel drivers?

Cheers
Michael.
