Although I do not run realplayer I had to do some rangling to get my tv 
tuner to work.
What I did was completely remove pulseaudio and set up alsa though 
asound.conf

The following is for Myth tv setup but the sound setup tutorial is what 
we are after here anyway

    Setting up ALSA's .asoundrc, Properly

This is the chapter of interest
