btaudio provides /dev/dsp, a soundcard interface for (in this case) 
reading/recording uncompressed audio, matching the /dev/video to 
read/record the uncompressed video.

The PVR card compresses itself and of course includes audio in the MPEG 
stream, so it reads the audio internally and MythTV reads it together 
with the video stream in a single MPEG stream.

No need for btaudio or the like.
