i don't know how to "sniff" the usb port. if you want i can give you root access to the machine with the device plugged into it. it's a raspberry pi with raspbian wheezy.

I wonder if Bogdan could took the sniffs as his device has the problems.

My FC0012 sniffs are useless as FC0012 windows does not any register reads.

Your sniffs could be also handy, better than nothing, even likely 
produce just same logs as Bogdan (I suspect it is issue AF9035A vs AF9035B).
