I guess that's the reason. I don't know if this can be fixed now, though. The problem is that we first need to load the firmware before we know the queue count. There seem to have been some firmware loading changes, but I didn't track those too closely. So I don't know whether they allow fixing the situation or not... -- Greetings, Michael.
