[mythtv-users] Lost audio after upgrade

I've been using trunk for a while now with no problems. I upgraded
today from a revision pulled 9/5 (sorry, don't know the revision
number) to r22479. Now my audio has stopped working. I am using a USB
audio device with AC3 passthrough and an HD-PVR. I have ensured my
audio settings are the same as they were before by comparing to the
pre-upgrade database backup. Audio works fine in all my other programs
(mplayer, XBMC, etc.) When I try to play anything back with MythTV, I
get this error on the console:

Any ideas what's going on here?
