The vendor driver is only for 2.4? Peter?

Did you enable hardware flow control somewhere perhaps?

That id was added by 82078234d402 ("USB: serial: ch341: New VID/PID for
CH341 USB-serial") in 2008, which claims that the driver supports both
old and new devices.

This still looks like a hardware issue to me. Specifically, this happens
before the ch341 driver is even involved.

Try to see if you can get the device to work reliably with some other
driver (vendor driver or other OS) to rule out a broken device.
