ALSA audio with em8300

I am having problems getting audio to come out of my Hollywood+. I am
using openSuSE 10.3 and vdr (1.4.7)

I have compiled and installed your program (0.16.4) and the video works
without any problem but I can't get any audio. I have tried many things to
get it working such as: dxr3config, manually adding sound_driver=oss or
sound_driver_alsa to the /etc/modprobe.d/em8300 script and checking both
the analog and digital outputs but without any success.

I would be very grateful for any pointers you can give me. Here is what I
have found.

1. Executing: mpg123 -a /dev/em8300_ma-0 /media/DESTINY.wav
produces:
ALSA lib pcm.c:2145:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM /dev/em8300_ma-0
[alsa.c:144] error: cannot open device /dev/em8300_ma-0
[audio.c:505] error: failed to open audio device
[mpg123.c:666] error: Failed to initialize output, goodbye.


2. Should I be using ALSA or OSS? /etc/modprobe.d/em8300 contains:
#configuration for adv717x bt865 em8300, generated by dxr3config 0.3.4
#chip-parameterset: 2
alias char-major-121 em8300
install em8300 /sbin/modprobe adv717x && /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install
em8300
remove em8300 /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove em8300 && /sbin/modprobe
-r adv717x
options adv717x pixelport_16bit=0 pixelport_other_pal=0
options em8300 dicom_fix=1 dicom_control=1 dicom_other_pal=0 audio_driver=oss


3. dxr3config says "No dxr3-EEprom found" but the video output is fine.
Should I be worried about this?

Regards,

Jonathan
