When viewing some previously recorded shows, if something else is being recorded at the same time I'll hear the audio from the new recording in addition to the previously recorded show's audio. Worst yet, it's not a simple pass-through - it appears to actually be incorporated in the recording and replays exactly the same each time the recording is played.

It's most commonly encountered while watching a recording while something else is being recorded at the same time, however it doesn't always happen under those circumstances. It seems to always occur when I attempt to watch something as it's being recorded.
