Uh oh - the behavior you described is matches the _reset_ value of the RS
register (0xF8, when you'd probably want 0xFC or 0xFD). Chances are the
ASIC never writes to this register, and maybe even has no provisions to do
that at all :(

You should really "poke around" in the ASIC and try everything you can
think of to write to this register - it would make your driver so much
better...
