I've been talking with Nick, and it looks like the patch isn't even needed. Try adding the options:
options tda9887 port1=0 port2=0
to your modprobe.conf and reload it and ivtv

@ Nick: What doesn't it fix? Do you still have the clicking? Or is it
just that you need to use qss=0? In and of itself I don't have a
problem in that. As it happens I'm not sure exactly what qss=0 does,
even though I appear to be the first one to mention it on this list.
Anybody able to clue me in on this? Or perhaps point me towards some
docs?

@Bryan: Yep, same card. I'm living in Denmark, where I understand we
are using PAL-G...

FWIW I haven't cold booted after patching, so... Maybe I should do?
Still havent had the chance to see if any of my audio crapness is
cleared up. Will attempt to do so in the next day or so.

Bryan,

I've spent the night working with Nick Rossier trying to solve the
clicking audio issue.  Thanks to his perserverance, we've got a patch to
try out.  If you've experienced this:
-- 0.3.4s was the last working version with perfect sound
-- 0.3.5 fixed it
-- 0.3.5a broke it
-- loading the current version with options tda9887 qss=0 gives you
sound with continious clicking

I'm pretty sure this is the "magic" that used to be in the old
black_magic option (at least for PVR150mce PAL-B/G LG TAPE tuner 58).

I know that td9887 module is part of the real kernel sooooo I don't know
if this patch breaks every other card besides this one.  I'm also
concerned why this patch (which just turns on FM automute) would fix the
issue... what happens if there is an FM station tuned?  Will the audio
get wonky again?  Only The Shadow knows for sure!

Anyway, let's give this patch a try.  People who had to go to qss=0 to
get sound will have to remove it (intercarrier forever!)
