[pvrusb2] pvr usb2 detected as snd-usb-audio on debian testing

[Wim Vinckier]

It seemed to be helpful to follow the mailinglist.  There was a
message about identifying your hauppage device so I checked mine.  It
seems I'm not having a PVR USB but a WinTV USB2...  Anyway, thanks for
the help and keep up the good work.
