@MarcRandolph & others. I've just tested on a fully patched but "clean"
Lucid beta and I get the following error:

I followed the instructions to add the PPA, updated then ran
$ sudo apt-get upgrade linux-firmware-nonfree

Bug description:
Binary package hint: linux-firmware-nonfree

The firmware that comes for af9015 is not the latest version and it has an issue that blasts dmesg with this two error messages:
af9015: command failed:255
dvb-usb: error while querying for an remote control event.

The latest firmware version 0.95 solves this issue:
