Are you using ALSA for MythTV and then OSS for MythMusic? Have you
tried using OSS for everything to see if that removes the audio level
problems? MythMusic requires OSS, so it might be interesting to see if
using OSS throughout makes any difference (as it should then be using
the same mixer device). I'm not sure whether your mixer would show a
different control for audio using the OSS compat.
