Oh my golly goodness. Yes, this was the problem! I guess my mind was
still set in good ol' WindowsXX mode, where you (almost always) have
just one audio source set as your record source. Thanks for the tip,

I now have MythTV fully up and running, I can record shows ...  WITH
sound! Hurrah! From here on out I will probaly just pester people with
suggestions and setup preference.
