Also, I feel I should make a correction in my original statement. It is not MythTV improperly recording the CC, the more I look at it, it appears the tuner is not decoding the CC properly.
Also, I have two 350s in the system, but the original is used for TV out. The problem is there, whether there is one card or two in the system.
