Hercules Smart TV card - no sound in xawtv:

I am trying to get a Hercules Smart TV card to work. It has the BT878
chip. I am using the 107 release of the bttv drivers, which supports this
card as 'card=100', along with kernel 2.4.21 (previously had same results
with 2.4.20). This card also has bt878 audio.

I am able to get video quite nicely. It is sound that has me confused. I
have read the various FAQs, but seem to be no more enlightened than when I
started. I think I am missing a few basic concepts.

I think this card offers two options for sound. Either via the audio out on
the card, or via the btaudio driver.

However, xawtv does not produce sound on the audio out of the TV card. I
have a speaker attached to the audio out. I think I eventually want this
into my sound card, but if it is not coming out of the tv card, that is a
later concern.

I tried the btaudio driver, as the Hercules card has this. When I load
the driver, it finds the card and sets up /dev/dsp2 (digital) and /dev/dsp3
(analog).  KMix then has a tab for this (along wity one for the SB Live).
However, there is no sound in xawtv via this route either.

Any pointers?
