Can you please add a lsusb -v -d 0af0:d001 listing taken before switching the device and also one for 0af0:d157 after switching.
What vid:pid do you get when trying to switch the device using the "BAD configpack" ?

Somehow the "Interface" paramater has never made it into the data package ...

I'll include it with the next release; however, a small change in the program package is required as well. This applies to the upstream wrapper code which filters out all devices with interface 0 class anything other than "8" (meaning it expects the pseudo CDROM at the first interface). I don't know how the Ubuntu fork handles this.

For now, this device can be treated manually. Copy the "faulty" config file to /etc/usb_modeswitch.d and edit it by adding this line: "Interface=1".

Then run this command (as root or with sudo):
"usb_modeswitch -I -v 0af0 -p d001 -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/0af0:d001"

Correction for post #4:

When you edit the config file, also add the following lines:

MessageEndpoint =0x02
ResponseEndpoint =0x89
