Dear Antti,
I apologize for tackling this old problem, but I just ran into the same
situation with my "DVBSky T330 DVB-C" and found that I'm not the only one.

Also, you used 4.0.19 firmware. Could you test that old one:

I've just tried the old 4.0.11 firmware - and the error is gone. Now the tuning
works perfectly!

Reason is that silicon vendor has changed firmware API somewhere between 4.0.11 and 4.0.19 so that newer firmwares will put device to full sleep which causes even device firmware lost.

Fix is here, and I hope I can push it to 4.8 - it will took about half year from this day until it is on mainline (it is not regression so I cannot send it to older kernels and for 4.7 it is too late). Before that just use 4.0.11 firmware.
