Hi Daniel,
I'm sorry to be late for reply but I was hard to prepare series of patch for Fireworks driver.
I have uploaded some two logs. The first one is for the fa-66 (fw-fa66.txt) and the second one is for the Audio5 (fw-a5.txt).
There seems to be an issue with the Audio5, though I haven't looked into it yet (quite busy, sorry) For that device I even got a serial console to it) Maybe you see the problem already from the log.
In the log of Audio5, there were much lock transaction for iPCR[0]/oPCR[0]. This means that snd-bebob tried to establish connection several times to start transmitting/receiving streams.
I guess that the module-alsa-sink of PulseAudio retried snd_pcm_prepare() several times due to get err. When snd_pcm_prepare() failed, snd_bebob_stream_start_duplex() is failed inner snd-bebob. Establishing connections is done by make_both_connections() so we should notice the codes after this function.
There are four possibilities, two of them are related to start_stream() and the others are related to amdtp_stream_wait_callback(). But the former generates log output. So amdtp_stream_wait_callback() causes this issue;
This function return false when snd-bebob cannot receive AMDTP in-packets within 100 msec after establishing connection. Please see amdtp.c in detail. I programmed this to prevent snd-bebob from waiting forever to receive in-packets.
So I guess you can playback/capture with your device when you expand the time (200 msec or more). Or there are some bugs of snd-bebob to handle your device.
Would you test and get logs again after expand waiting time? Then please use aplay/arecord to test. I believe simple tools help our investigating.
And I hope you to give me an advice for my headache. As long as I investigated, snd-bebob can support 64 device and models (I count the devices to which the same expansion card can apply). But there are some devices which I can't identify its vendor_id/model_id.

Do you have any idea to identify them?
