You see, the only thing in common with those two cards, with different manufacturers, different drivers, different firmware, is the PCI bus and how you're using it (PCI passthrough on QEMU). Perhaps it's either a QEMU or a PCI bus driver issue. Have you brought up the question with either of those teams? - Steve
