I checked the recording again - there is no sound whatsoever until
its very end. I had programmed some reserve time after the movie,
so my recording goes all the way to 04:40:01.
One would assume that the ZDF people would notice such a problem
within almost two hours. Hundreds of people would have called them,
even that late at night. So I guess we can almost certainly rule 
out a sound failure on the ZDF side.

If this is a driver bug, I wonder if the other sound problems will 
go away at the same time when it gets fixed....
