Could you try the camera on another Linux system ?

It seems the problem is not limited to uvcvideo but also impacts usbaudio. Could you try not to load the uvcvideo driver (you can blacklist it by adding "blacklist uvcvideo" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf - the file name and location might be distribution- dependent) and check if ALSA still prints error messages ?
