Looking at those hex values, I suspect the problem is the last
one ('1f') - that's probably being regarded as "non-printable",
so the whole string is represented in hex, rather than ascii.

Try setting the value using
  snmp_set_var_typed_value( request->requestvb , ASN_OCTECT_CTR,
       (u_char *) &my_data , strlen(my_data));

(instead of 'sizeof'), and see if that helps.
