[SOLVED] No sound from tv card with mplayer, only arecord/aplay

So I finally got my Hauppauge 950Q usb tv tuner working with mplayer so I can see the video with this command:

 mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:norm=NTSC:input=0:device=/dev/video1:chanlist=us-cable

but I can't get any sound unless I run this command simultaneously:

arecord -D hw:1,0 -r 32000 -c 2 -f S16_LE | aplay 

I assume I need to translate the arecord arguements into mplayer arguements, but I'm not really sure how.  Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

I followed the directions here: http://inspirated.com/2007/04/05/alsa-l … th-mplayer and made the command:

 mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:norm=NTSC:input=0:device=/dev/video1:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=2:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:immediatemode=0 

and now it works.
