It's a hardware bug.
If this is in the Linux driver, can this be fixed?
We have tons of workarounds in the driver for such broken devices. This will be just yet another one.

The device's firmware does not allow reading this mixer control for some reason; this is probably a bug.
Please try the following commands: rmmod snd-usb-audio modprobe snd-usb-audio ignore_ctl_error=1
This makes the driver ignore errors, but cannot prevent the errors from happening in the first place. Please check if you get the desired effect when you write this control.
