The first error messages in your log are:

May 26 20:08:21 linux kernel: ivtv0 warning: Encoder mailbox not found
May 26 20:08:21 linux kernel: ivtv0 warning: invalid api mailbox

I have not seen these before, but I would guess that it could be caused by a
wrong detection of the card. Do you do any overrides of anything? (how does
your modprobe.conf look like?) Note that Jarod Wilsons guide carry a lot of
legacy things, that are no longer needed. I have a PVR-250 which needed a
couple of special lines in modules.conf when I was using FC1. I recently
reinstalled with FC4 and the latest ivtv drivers, and I did not have to do
any special adjustments to modprobe.conf

Re sound: Try turning the sound system off in the control panel

Re Lirc: I did not see any lirc lines in your log. Have you installed lirc
and lirc-kmdl and is lirc running?
