Ok, so that seems to confirm the suspicion that changing settings after the initial configuration is failing (even though the device does indeed support 5-bit mode). Could you try to verify if that applies to the baud rate as well? That is, can you switch between say 9600 and 115200 after opening the port and verify that against the pl2303? Still using usb-linus with the first LCR write removed.
