That is s a known issue with the CX2388[578] chip and PCIe MSI.

The CX2388[578] will not accept a different value for its "MSI Data"
field in its PCI config space, when MSI has been enabled on the hardware
once.

The kernel will always try to give a different value for the "MSI Data"
field to the CX2388[578] chip, on cx23885 module unload and reload.

So suspend and then resume didn't reset the chip hardware?

You can set "pci=nomsi" on your kernel command line to prevent the
cx23885 driver, and your whole system unfortunately, from using MSI.
