I believe it is due to the order the cards where added in mythtv-setup.
You'll need to check the docs - I'm pretty sure it's covered in there, but
ISTR that it uses the card with the lowest id first (i.e. the card that was
added first). So you'd need to remove all the cards and add them again.
That's not actually too bad because you don't need to remove the inputs or
the channels.

I think the setting that Duncan mentioned reverses the order in which Myth
chooses live tv tuners. So that might work for you - try it first.

Cheers,
Steve
