I run a very similiar setup. While myth doesn't run when the normal screen is activated, the TV0ut on the PVR-350 still works (not the framebuffer, however). So I switch to VT8 to change channels, browse the guide, menus, recordings, etc, but when something is playing I can switch back to the desktop and work. Not a very permanent solution, but it works!
