The strangest thing. Last night when I booted the old laptop back to 
Linux, I got stereo from pvrusb2. I then powered off the laptop and 
PVR-USB2 and rebooted and the stereo still works. I've pasted the log 
info below. This is a 2.6.15 kernel. No ivtv installed at all. I didn't 
update v4l.

Still no stereo on the original desktop. When I send Stereo/Mono to the 
ctl_audio_mode, I think what I'm hearing is the tuner switching between 
Stereo/Mono. The mono sound is cleaner and stronger because the 
airy-hissy sound from the FM antenna is gone, but both are mono.

I have two laptops, but the other one has a 2.4.x kernel so I can't try 
that easily.

Any suggestions? Should I yank out the internal PVR-150 as a test?

This is the log and debug from the laptop now that it mysteriously gets 
stereo:
