I am not aware of having done anything wrong. Anyway, the issue could be solved by updating the on-card flashed firmware from 4.0.530 to 4.0.539. With this firmware, everything seems to be fine. Maybe the Linux driver should be adapted to not fail silently if it doesn't like the on-card firmware but instead log an error message so that people know they need to update their firmware.
