I have an old provideo pv951. The sound never worked properly on the
early ones. We ended modifying a cdrom sound cable plugging one end into
the on-board line1 and figuring out which pins were left and right on
the video card. So when i record, i record line1! The side effect is
when i turn off the tuner program eg gradio the card is still tuned in
until it is completely powered off.
