I had audio distortion issues initially too. Much of it was because of suspend-to-ram whereby the v4l modules don't resume correctly and all modules needed to be removed on suspend and modprobed again after resume, and upto an extent about adjusting bass and treble thru sysfs. Dig up archives and you may find some useful values for bass and treble. If you can't get any of the different values to work for you, I can post the values that I use when I reach home.

Looking at the sysfs interface the level is some odd number in the 50000s. I've reduced this to 48000 and there is still distortion. It is a little difficult as some of the MythTV encoder settings are ignored and some used. I'm thinking though that the level may just be too high for the hardware input, so reducing the software volume may not help. >Though if you are not getting distortion for ATSC playback >then this would seem to rule out everything downstream of the PVR USB2 >device. I think they use different audio codecs, so this may not be sure. It also seems that there still may be a slight audio delay or video delay, not enough to obviously tell, but enough so you can tell something is not quite right. Is there any adjustment for this in the encoding side. I know you can adjust it during playback, but it would be nice to have it recorded ideally.
