My hand is up.

I'm using SBLive Premium with Alsa on a custom RH8 box. My audio connection
is via the Optical SP/DIF to my digital amp. I'm also using Myth from CVS.

First thing I would check is the integrity of the line in on the sblive.

secondly, check the integrity of the cable between the TV card and the
sblive.

Lastly, check that the output of the TV card is producing desired 2
channels.

Finally you might want to install some Speakers and ditch those 'speckers'.
I've tried them, and they never worked for me... ;-)

Regards,

Mark.

Hi all

I too am using a sblive value - alsa 0.96 2.4.21 kernel - no probs
pushing 30 feet to my entertainment center. Your probls sound like
hardware issues. I presume you've played with alsamixer? Using a mono
or stereo 1/8" plug (its a digital signal so you only need mono) ? Let
us know if you're still having problems. (two heads and all that).
