It turns out that tuner=37 gives me a colour picture, but I still can't
get sound - only a dull hiss.  It's definitely coming from the card - if
I unplug the cable between it and the sound card, it stops.

I've tried a few things from your post, but nothing seems to work.

I took the card out and had a look at it:

Only chip on it is a Conexant CX23881-19

Writing on card says 

Hauppauge Comptuer Works, Inc.
340000-09
www.hauppauge.com
(c) 2004

HannStor V-8
94V-0
0433

Tuner sticker says

PAL-I 
34705
Rev J198

Underneath is pretty difficult to see, but appears to say 

TCL2002-MI-3H
2K4 002

Any more ideas, anyone?  Grateful for any help
