"audio" is the kernel's OSS driver. You really shouldn't load OSS and ALSA
drivers (such as snd-ice1712) at the same time.

ALSA's USB driver is names snd-usb-audio ...

snd-usb-audio should work. Probably you have an old ALSA version (see
/proc/asound/version), but I guess there's a conflict when snd-usb-audio
and the proprietary driver both try to access the device at the same time.
Please try loading snd-usb-audio without the pwc/pwcx modules.
