My intention was to show that I'd verified that the hardware is working.

The poor configuration above is what I came up with after reading the
.asoundrc guide. I wouldn't be attempting to create said file if it
worked automatically. Given that sound is reaching the computer from
the device, the problem must be either alsa config or myth config. I
feel like I've tried what I could in myth config, so I'm trying to hunt
for the problem in alsa.
