When you try the hdpvr on the backend, run lsusb to see which bus it is on.
You need to have it on a usb 2.0 bus, and it is recommended that the hdpvr
not share that bus with anything.  I would get the same behavior as you
describe when the hdpvr is sharing a bus with anything else (supposedly even
another hdpvr, although I only have 1 and can't verify that).

 

Here is my output for lsusb:

 

Bus 002 Device 014: ID 046d:c218 Logitech, Inc. Logitech RumblePad 2 USB

Bus 002 Device 011: ID 046d:c218 Logitech, Inc. Logitech RumblePad 2 USB

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 045e:008a Microsoft Corp. Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0471:0815 Philips (or NXP) eHome Infrared Receiver

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 001 Device 013: ID 2040:4900 Hauppauge

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

 

As you can see, the snobby hdpvr doesn't have to share like the rest of the
world is doing.
