another observation as an addon to my previous post  (I'd liked to edit
it but unfortunately I can't)

less /tmpX<TAB>      # gives  "less /tmpX/"  on the same line
type lv                          # gives "lv is /usr/bin/lv"
lv     /tmpX<TAB>       # gives "lv /tmpX " with a trailing space

So it is supposedly not the alias but some other mechanism.
Maybe it is a changed default for "unknown"  commands.

P.S. 
ls /etc/bash_completion.d      # on my ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS gives
 apt-file  axi-cache  debconf  gem1.9.1 grub  initramfs-tools  insserv  pon  
ufw  upstart

cat /etc/bash_completion        # gives     
. /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion

ll /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion   # gives
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 67659 Apr  7  2014 
/usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
