I vaguely recall that a firmware blob is required, usually provided in an ubuntu package

try this:

sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree linux-firmware

reboot or unplug replug the tuner and try again.

There will also be a line in dmesg if the tuner can’t find the firmware.

PS I do have a T292e, I was just being lazy with the e
