Simple answer is that you probably can't unless you have 8-bit audio 
fitted and even then you will probably struggle since there are no filters 
to convert the standard formats to the 'interesting' mu-law format that 
vidc uses.  I have a driver for 16-bit nearly working, but it still clips 
the end of the audio stream and contains a large amount of DMA code that 
really should be punted to a generic IOMD bus-dma implementation.  
Something I keep intending to work on in my copious free time...

Incidentally, a generic IOMD bus-dma implementation would form the basis 
for dma to podules and the internal hard disk interface as well, so would 
be a really Good Thing (tm).
