That's possible, and it should be easy to support these type of
devices in ALSA. However, some logic is neccessary to configure the
hardware to its correct baud rate and hardware protocol. The easiest
way to determine the setup sequence is certainly to sniff the Windows
driver communication with some tool like usbsnoop. Can you give that a
try?
