Probably not. Most audio hardware vendors don't care about Linux.

Well, I already offered to provide a patch to at least make the device
be recognized by the USB subsystem layer. After that has happened, we
can look at the other decriptors and see what they yield.

It's likely, however, that the device is not compatible to any class
compliant driver. I'd even assume the vendor set bNumConfigurations to 1
on purpose so that Windows doesn't look at the device. But that's just
guessing.

Let me know if you want to give such a patch a try.
