[mythtv] Separate frontend backend issues...

I have another question, not a big suprise I'm sure, concerning the separate
front and backend.

I am having audio issues with dual tuners installed. I have an ATI Tuner as
/dev/video0 and the PVR 250 as /dev/video1.

When I had ONLY the PVR, I got audio nicely through both frontends. Now, I have
the audio set up as per the generic doc and the audio is intermittent on the
frontend/backend combo, and non-existent on the separate backend (which appears
to be using the PVR card). Is this an audio driver issue?

I don't get any errors or I would attach them.

I also am getting the second frontend hung when I try to view a recorded show.
No errors, so I have no clue where to start. But I'll work on one thing at a time =)

Thanks, Wade
