If anyone cares, I got one of these after Jim's suggestion and it is
recognized by linux as follows:

(lsusb -v output available on request)

Volume control only shows a PCM slider, which is a bit weird. I have not
yet tried to hook it up to the radio. 

Jim, how do you set the little volume control?
