Hi,
I'm using latest xbmcbuntu V13 and HRT music streamer II.
I noticed that lately it get stuck on mute without an option to change it, unless I restart the computer.
This is very annoing and I will aprreciate any help.
I attach lsusb -t:
Code:
ormetal@HTPC:~/.xbmc/temp$ lsusb -t
/:  Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci-pci/2p, 480M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/8p, 480M
        |__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=mceusb, 12M

        |__ Port 5: Dev 5, If 1, Class=Wireless, Driver=btusb, 12M
And xbmc.log of this error (something with alsa unable to connect to the audio device). The problem appears around 22:28 at July 15th.

anyone?
It seems that after few minutes/hours the DAC's lights are changing from 48khz to 96khz+mute (two lights). Killall -9 xbmc.bin restores the sound or changing the audio source back and forth.
I attach log while it happens.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

may be an mythtv issue. Does this happen with local video files as well? Can you try another PVR backend and/or provide a recorded sample?
I tried with tvheadend. It also happens with local video or DVD
