The cdc-acm driver cannot handle those ports, but a more forgiving
generic driver can. I don't recommend it for normal use because it
abuses the option driver, but Ben could do a simple test like this:
echo 2 /sys/bus/usb/devices/usbportname/bConfigurationValue
modprobe option
echo 152a 8230 /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id
Unless I missed something, this should result in two /dev/ttyUSBx serial
devices.
Before plugging in the receiver, there's ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 from
another usb/serial converter device that I can't remove. After plugging
in, dmesg says:

cdc_acm 3-2:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

and ttyACM0 appears.

ttyACM0 is gone and no new ttyUSB* appear.

ttyUSB2 is dead
ttyUSB3 works and is connected to a port named USB1 on the receiver
ttyUSB4 is dead
ttyUSB5 works and is connected to a port named USB2 on the receiver

I guess this device is worth a new serial driver of its own in case that
works? Or should we create a generic driver for 02/02/ff serial devices
(using the inverse of the logic in drivers/net/usb/cdc_ether.c:
usbnet_generic_cdc_bind to avoid RNDIS devices)? A few modems with such
ports have been added to option, but a generic solution might be better.
I obviously don't know, but would be very happy to supply further
information!
thanks,
