This is a known bug (however on my card you have to run fxtv in order
to initialize the tuner. It's in some strange off-like state until I do).
The bug is in the radio app not initializing the driver properly (I think). 
I haven't had the time to take fxtv apart to see what Randall does
to initialize the driver. As stated in the README: If anyone knows
what I'm missing, I'd love to hear about it.
One mysterious datapoint is that Amancio found out that on his FM aware
card, running fxtv will add an offset to the radio frequencies - I 
haven't got a clue as to what's happening. I can't tell from your post
if that's your problem.
