[j-nsp] QSA modules and DDM/DOM readings

Hello

is it possible to use a QSA module and get DDM/DOM readings?
Here's a Juniper QFX5100-48T with a QSA adapter. The 10G interface is up and it is forwarding packets, but there are no DOM/DDM readings:

root# run show interfaces terse xe-0/0/52*
Interface               Admin Link Proto    Local Remote
xe-0/0/52:0             up    up
xe-0/0/52:0.0          up    up   eth-switch
xe-0/0/52:1             up    down
xe-0/0/52:2             up    down
xe-0/0/52:3             up    down

{master:0}[edit]
root# run show interfaces diagnostics optics
Physical interface: xe-0/0/52:0
     Optical diagnostics                       :  N/A

Physical interface: xe-0/0/52:1
     Optical diagnostics                       :  N/A

Physical interface: xe-0/0/52:2
     Optical diagnostics                       :  N/A

Physical interface: xe-0/0/52:3
     Optical diagnostics                       :  N/A

What is particularly irritating is that fs.com claims to have DOM support ("DOM Support    Yes") but it doesn't seem to work:

I tried QSAs from two different vendors but to no avail. I wonder if anyone has succeded in getting DDM/DOM readings on a QSA adapter. Is it the QFX5100-48T's fault or is it the QSA+SFP Modules that are at fault?

Regards
Karl
