It's nice to have it confirmed that this setup probably has the potential to 
work.  My /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware looks identical to yours:

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 262144 2006-01-06 05:43 v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw
-r--r--r--  1 root root 376836 2006-01-06 05:40 v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 155648 2006-01-06 05:44 v4l-cx2341x-init-mpeg.bin
-r--r--r--  1 root root  14264 2006-01-06 05:40 v4l-cx25840.fw

Thanks for the suggestion.  Any others remain welcome.
