Just verify that the 32000 audio setting stays from within
mythtv-setup (these settings will stick if they're set while the
backend isn't running, then starting the backend after setting it) and
that your recording profiles (done from the frontend) are also set to
have audio at 32000.

Another is to make sure that your audio mixer doesn't have the sound
levels set too high.
