Don know if it's the same bug, but I've got the same device and experience a similar issue.
If I disconnect the Soundgraph VFD(15c2:0036) all is fine(minus unable to use IR and display)
Once I connect it, it behaves as if the up-arrow is pressed and get this when using debug:

Loading a kernel like 2.6.32 the display is not causing any trouble and is working like it was on lucid and precise with lucid 2.6.32 kernel. This bug also exists on latest 3.8.2 from mainline intended for raring. This affects at least kernels 3.0-3.8 afaict and will test with a live image from another distro to see if it's ubuntu-specific.
