I can't reproduce what happened in the past in more detail.
Here's what happens now:
After unplugging the external USB camera which I've now attached,
running cheese gives stderr (/stdout):
$ cheese
libv4l2: error setting pixformat: Device or resource busy
libv4l2: error setting pixformat: Device or resource busy

guvcview gives:
