I had the same problem. I ended up doing the following to get it to 
work. I doubt that all the steps are needed, but I am not sure which 
one(s) actually did the trick for the sound.

Adjusted kernel modules:
(1) cd /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.741_FC3smp/kernel/drivers/media/video/  ; \
     mv msp3400.ko msp3400.ko.orig
(2) cd /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.741_FC3smp/updates/drivers/media/video/ ; \
     mv msp3400.ko msp3400.ko.orig ; \
     cp msp3400-ivtv.ko msp3400.ko
(3) cd /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.741_FC3smp/updates/drivers/media/video/ ; \
     mv tveeprom.ko tveeprom.ko.orig \
     cp tveeprom-ivtv.ko tveeprom.ko

Added to /etc/modprobe.conf:
install eeprom { /sbin/modprobe tveeprom; } ; /sbin/modprobe 
--first-time --ignore-install eeprom
