I get this sometimes as well
Usually when I am recording liveTv. As soon as the
recording perior ends and it tries to switch back to
watching live TV, blammo.

rebuffering (234497 256000)
Changing from WatchingRecording to WatchingLiveTV
Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!
Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!
Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!
Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!
Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!

RH9, pvr250, Athlo 2600+, Audigy soundcard with Alsa,
mythtv 0.91
