I think XawTV doesn't create any sound at all, but tells the tv-card to produce sound at a specified volume level. But I'm not sure how the volume regulation with XawTV works exactly.

Yesterday it worked during several reboots. After deactivating the on-board chip ALSA activated the audigy, but activating the on-board chip again resulted in ALSA ignoring the audigy. Maybe yesterday was a 'two sound chip day' and today isn't ;). The audigy card came with a sound hub, which has additional line-in connectors. Fortunately I found a 2m stereo cable at home which I could use to plug the tv-card to the sound hub on my desk. Suddenly the tv-sound came out of the speakers without any additional configuration. Maybe this solution is even more crappy, but without the on-board chip being activated, it's line-in is useless. And if ALSA ignores the audigy when the on-board chip is activated this option doesn't apply. Anyway, thank you very much for your fast replies! Andreas
