You need some i2c_enable statements in there. I have a 350 in the same box as 
a 500, works just fine. Try this:

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv
options saa7127 i2c_enable=1,-1
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 ivtv_std=1 tuner=47,47
options cx25840 i2c_enable=-1,1 no_black_magic=1

The saa7127 driver for the 350's output is hijacking the i2c bus on the 150, 
the -1 to i2c_enable tells it to not enable for a given card.
