I know and IMO your troubleshooting is the best method to find the cause
for the issue, but since I don't use braille, it's easy for me to take a
look at the BIOS configuration. Just to be absolutely safe, I would take
a look for "voodoo" settings, e.g. an option, "disable/enable E-MU audio
card support for PCIe" ;), I also would consider to update the BIOS.
That Linux can "see" hardware, that is known to work with Linux, doesn't
mean that it will work with each mobo and/or BIOS version. If a flat
ribbon cable is involved or something similar, I even would replace a
brand new cable if something shouldn't work. It's quiet possible to get
unstable connectivity, I for example hot glued SATA connectors to get
rid of issues, because the connectors loosed after a while.
That for Julien it's not that easy to take a look at the BIOS
configuration is another issue, but everybody else in this situation
should spend a few seconds, just to ensure, that nothing "capricious" is
caused by the BIOS.
Perhaps there's some voodoo by the BIOS.
PCIe accesses work, as proven by the lspci output.
The problem probably is with the driver.
