Title:
  Sound goes bad when changing channels

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Won't Fix
Status in MythTV:
  Won't Fix
Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Currently have Beta 8.04 installed and all updates as of 4/2/08.
  Whenever I change a channel in LiveTV, the sound gets full of static
  and gets a loud, high-pitched whine to it. If I exit out of LiveTV and
  go back it, everything is fine again. If I'm watching LiveTV then a
  scheduled recording wants to start, that recording will have the same
  sound issue throughout unless I exit out of LiveTV first.

  I'm currently just using onboard audio. From lspci:

  00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
  VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)

  I've only had this problem since upgrading from 7.10 to the 8.04 beta.
  Audio worked fine when changing channels before then. I spoke to
  someone in IRC about it and they pointed me to this article:

  http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_PVR-500#Audio_Instability

  I guess exiting LiveTV and restarting it does what that suggested
  command would do. And having to do that at every channel change isn't
  really a solution. I'm not sure where I would insert that script that
  is suggested either.
