hello

it's been said :
"/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base is NOT a good solution!  It requires root
access for one.  Apps should not depend on a fixed soundcard ordering
but should address devices by name."

I strongly disagree with this statement. Since names are indexed on hw0 hw1
etc as written in .asoundrc file, then names mathematically depends upon
hardware ordering behind 0,1 etc... Though it is a dirty solution, I agree
in the absolute, I have spent months dealing with this problem and the only
way to fix this for the moment is to configure alsa-base. And now everything
is ok. For me indeed.
The thing is to set the vendor_ref, th product_id, then the index of the
device.

For examples follow this link on Alsawiki.

I think it is jackd's fault, and alsa's fault. ( Alsa cannot deal with two
identical usb devices for ordering them fine they are randomly ordered, and
all in all, using the name of the device wouldn't be sufficient ). This
maybe be correct in the future, however, now my complex setup works.


sincerely

Blue I.
