Ok, finishe with BIOS update and my tests in several ubuntu and here are my 
resaults:
(some other day i will test my netbook with this camera... but for now i will 
give the resaults of my desktop):

On Ubuntu 12.04
------------------------
sometimes the error is both:
"cannot set freq 16000 to ep 0x86 "
and
"uvcvideo: Failed to query (GET_DEF) UVC control..."

Also, in Audio settings of guvcview input device is changed almost randomly 
from pulse or
default to spdif or sysdefault and i have no microphone (on skype or guvcview) 
with these settings 
until i change back to default or pulse

if i uninstall guvcview, sometimes doesn't give the error, but if i run skype 
then gives "cannot set freq"
(I am not sure if this is random ... but as i noticed this has something to do 
with skype)

if i unplug the camera i have no error, and everything works fine,
then if i open sound settings, then sound settings->input
is iec958-stereo input built in audio
and then guvcview crushes and skype has no sound

I noticed after several tests, that if i unplug the camera and not use
skype or setings after pluging in the camera again, then i don't have
the error... for some reason skype desapears from the taskbar and then i
have to unplug camera, plug it in again, choose input sound from sound
settings to be the camera's mic and NOT TO USE sound settings or
volume... so may be the bug is in the alsamixer...

On Lubuntu 12.04
------------------------      
Almost the same.... but haven't check unpluging the camera ..
i almost always had the error

On Linux Mint 13
------------------------- 
i had the error
if i remove pulseaudio i have no error but sound recorder doesn;t works
if i install again pulseaudio the error comes back
(i think i used sound settings)

On Ubuntu 13.04
--------------------- 
i had the error and i have noticed that guvcview input changed sometimes to 
spdif from pulse during restarts... and sometimes couldnt find USB input... but 
other times it apeared and if i choose the USB input everything except skype 
test sound works fine...
But almost always had the error (

On Lubuntu 13.10
--------------------------  
I never had the error (i think this helps) but i had no sound  on skype and had 
sound on guvcview with input device webcam c310 analog input (or analog mono 
-dont remember now)...
If i uninstall pulseaudio, i have sound on skypoe but guvcview doesnt open a 
window and i have to kill   it from a terminal. 
If i remove guvcview and install again, everything works (including test sound)

if i reinstall pulseaudio i have no sound on skype test sound

But i never had the error on lubuntu 13.10

So if you know the deferences between this (lubuntu 13.10) and other
ubuntu (plus Mint 13) may be you can understand what happens...
