I was hoping just something went wrong with the encode rather than
no audio in the DV files (as I had been playing around with the audio
encoding options for the AWIA encodes previously).

Well the ultimate check is monitoring the stream to check both audio and
video.

Euan has done a great job encapsulating all the necessary steps in the
DV menu, including testing, so this was definitely a failure of procedure.

As a speaker I can say i'm really disappointed about this. That said, I
know everyone is a volunteer and I appreciate all the help - it's more that
this isn't bulletproof yet :(
