Interesting.

I vaguely remember seeing strange problems like this a few years ago.  
It was ultimately traced to a misconfiguration in the cx25840 module, 
which had been triggered due to a missing call from the pvrusb2 driver.  
The call in question was for initializing a piece of logic that was 
supposed to be irrelevant to the driver but that initialization had a 
side effect within the cx25840 module.

Still reading through the thread...
