I glanced at them for 3 seconds, but I cannot be bothered
to analyze them in detail.  The ASCII usbmon traces don't
show full USB packet contents anyway so you can't see if
partial MPEG TS packets are missing.

The device transfers data in the "not working" case, it's just that
the MPEG TS sync byte is not where Markus expects it, which could
be explained by a partial MPEG TS packet left in the device's FIFO
from previous interaction.
