That's due to the "OSD vs. replay" fix in the firmware :-)

I guess I can now safely remove the DO_REC_AND_PLAY_ON_PRIMARY_DEVICE
macro from dvbdevice.c. In one test I even did three simultaneous
recordings plus one replay on my primary device without the slightest
problem. The OSD, however, does get rather sluggish in such a scenario,
but with the typical case one recording plus replay (which also covers
time shift) everything works just fine now.
