:-) I'm using ArchLinux up-to-date (most recent stable kernels, today: 3.14.3-1). tvtime + sound via: $ sox -G -t alsa hw:1,0 -t alsa Worked for a very long time. Recently (~last month) the sound stopped working. Precisely: the sound seems to be "ripped", with some "noise" or "echo" - numerous short distortions/interruptions. My logs as an attachment. Best regards, Marek
