Dear Christopher,
With regard to myself, I can live with switching the kernel each time I need to use the camera, and eventually I will migrate to 14.04, but the bug is still valid and I don't know how who else is having the same problem.
It is your call.
Regards!

Title:
  046d:08d7 Logitech Webcam stops if there is no movement

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a webcam Logitech Communicate STX, which connects via USB and has integrated USB microphone.
  The audio is working just fine.
  My problem is with the video, when I start an application like Cheese, gstreamer-properties, vlc or empathy the video starts, but shortly after it freezes.
  Initially I thought it froze completely, but it didn't, if I make some movement very close to the camera (ie. moving my hand swiftly in front of it) it will start sending video again, but as soon as I stop this fast movement, the camera will freeze again.

  See:

  I tested the kernel 3.4.0-999-generic-pae and the camera works.
