Madhvacharya, for the particular portion of the Satyakama episode, just
cites a verse from a 'sāmasamhitā and says nothing more:

p.67 -
आर्जवं ब्राह्मणे साक्षात् शूद्रोऽनार्जवलक्षणः ।
गौतमस्त्विति विज्ञाय सत्यकाममुपानयत् ॥ इति सामसंहितायाम् ।
The above verse translates to:
'Straightforwardness (Truth) is seen directly in a brāhmaṇa and a śūdra is
naturally lacking it. Gautama, thus concluding, initiated Satyakāma.'
