There are often problems in the video4linux kernel drivers. Each time we 
change tv card
I invariably end up submitting patches. The Xine V4L code works.

I've never seen this with my player. The sounds might keep going for 
around a one second
if ALSA does not cleanup. But after that no app is providing sound 
buffers to ALSA so
it cannot play the TV sound. If you do not have lip-sync then the 
problem is probably
a misconfigure ALSA mixer.

BTW my experience is on VIA Epia hardware. The CLE266 also has only on 
XV resource
and works fine.
