As I understand it, baud rate only makes sense for the physical serial
line, which is between the FPGA uartlite core and whatever the chip is
provides the USB ACM device. This is what is operating at 19200. At
least on Linux, the configured baud rate for /dev/ttyACM* seems to be
completely ignored; the transfer rate is controlled by the USB ACM
device. Perhaps this is different on other operating systems and you
have to do something to tell the OS the rate to expect...?
