I recently encountered this problem on Gutsy since I recently upgraded.
There was no such problem on my previous system which was running on
Feisty. I did some research on this and observed similar issues from
http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20071110.140702.65aa264f.en.html.

What I found even more unusual was the fact that the bttv module
detected the card (type 34, Leadtek WinFast 2000/ WinFast 2000 XP) but
the bt878 module failed to identify the card during probing.

The question was the purpose of the bt878 module.Some research revealed
that the bt878 module was a fork from the bttv module. I am not sure the
maintaner of this module but as a test, I blacklist the module in
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.

After blacklisting, I was still able to use kdetv without the module.
Furthermore, I no longer have the problem of kdetv refusing to close
properly.
