Sorry, stupid me, I sent you the modprobe.conf from my Fedora 1 box. My Fedora
2 box modprobe.conf looks like yours.
Looks like something in mythtv is misconfigured. You should post the details
of your TV card, probably some smart person will see it and reveal the
correct incantation. I wish I had a TV card :)
Maybe your TV card has on-board sound that is being incorrectly
detected/configured and you actually have 2 sound devices. Check dmesg and
messages for any clues. And maybe lspci output would show something
interesting.
