Hmm ... I have not tried connecting directly to my speakers. I plugged a 
walkman into the line-in jack on my sound blaster card and it worked 
fine so I just assumed that wasn't the problem. I will try that tho. How 
would I go about debugging there? Is there any options to debug with 
xawtv? If so, what would I look for?

Yes, I do have that setup where an external cable that runs into the 
sound card. I do not have the DV card.
