[mythtv-users] AverMedia A180 pcHDTV HD5500 hate each other?

For a while I was having problems getting the HD5500 working along
side an A180.  Prior to adding the A180, the HD5500 seemed to work,
but I wanted to get them to play together.

So, fast forward to today:
I rebuilt the kernel and supplied drivers (from pchdtv.com) for the
HD5500 and now it's working, and a great card it is BTW.  But now the
A180 is failing to give me a picture.  I'm wondering if anyone else
had a similar issue, or even not the same issue but the same 2 cards
in a machine living in harmony?

FWIW, here's my system info:
