When the sound goes away, does that happen in the middle of a recording? 
Or did something special happen at that point (e.g. a channel change)?

Can you run 'ivtvctl -d /dev/videoX --log-status' (replace X with the 
PVR150 video device, probably 0 or 1), both when you have sound and 
when you haven't. The output appears in the kernel log so you have to 
check the output of dmesg (or look in /var/log/messages). This gives 
status information from the cx25840 chip which is responsible for the 
audio.

Does this problem appear with one specific channel or does it happen 
with other channels too?
