The EBADFD is already indicating a fatal error, and something is wrong
in the driver.  Basically the driver should suspend the stream via
snd_pcm_suspend*() call in the PM resume ops.  Most likely your driver
misses that.

That said, it's specific to your using driver, and you'd need to take
a look at that code there.
