I'm not entirely sure that the latest commit has fixed it, actually. We
recently had similar symptoms (channel change failure in Live TV) so I
assumed it was the same problem so I updated my patches to back out all
three commits and recompiled. I'm a little fuzzy on what happened next (not
sure if I tested it or not) but I do know that I rebooted and it worked
(with all 3 related commits backed out). It's possible, maybe even likely,
that a reboot would have solved it without backing out the commits. I
haven't followed up yet by restoring the commits. I can say that the commit
I mentioned fixed the problem when I first tested it immediately after
compiling. When I get a chance I'll try it again and follow up with a
ticket.

@Tom Dexter: Yes, this was 0.25.3_p20130422 which should have the fix.
