What is your PrimaryDevice?  And why there is a transfer from the
PrimaryDevice to device 3?

Why these modules will be probed?  I suggest that you'll have only
one sound card in your system and this would be snd-card-0 as
alias for the real module in /etc/modules.conf.

Are you able to do

    aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav

?  If not you should run

   alsaconf

or you should clean your /etc/modules.conf at the place where
the ALSA modules will be loaded.

Hmmm ... VDR runs not as root, should not be a problem, the thread
parsing the received TS stream should work ... if it receive something.
