Bug#290827: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686: Module saa7134 still broken



Subject: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686: Module saa7134 still broken
Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686
Version: 2.6.10-3
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Since Kernel 2.6.9 (not with kernel 2.6.8) a white noise occurs while booting just at the moment the aumix settings are being applied. It sounds like if you switch on the TV and have no TV station tuned in. As I can see after the boot by adjusting the mixer settings, the noise comes from the TV card channel.

The noise disappears when starting and closing a TV application. When I start Nextview EPG (nxtvepg), which is an electronic program guide, I can hear the sound of the TV station currently tuned in. The EPG does not provide any TV screen output and should not provide any audio output either. The TV sound does not disappear when closing Nextview EPG. To get rid of it, I have to start a TV application like xawtv, MoTV or tvtime and close it.

To me it seems as if the TV card sound is being switched on during the boot process, probably when loading the module.

The card is a Medion with a Philips SAA7134 chip. OSS is used here.
