Hm, more strangeness.. Just by googling around it seems that the options are
not exactly wrong, I think they are just not valid for the specific driver.
The vid and pid is the vendor id and product id, and it's what you get from
lsusb for example:
k...@xanadu:~$ lsusb | grep EDIROL
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0582:007d Roland Corp. EDIROL UA-101
This option is in sound.conf in /etc/modprobe.d, which if understood
correctly set explicitly the order of the internal HDA and the EDIROL:
k...@xanadu:/etc/modprobe.d$ cat sound.conf
options snd cards_limit=2
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-ua101
alias sound-slot-1 snd-ua101
options snd-ua101 index=1 vid=0x0582 pid=0x007d
So if I'm not mistaken with "vid" and "pid" you can define exactly the
device you want, as in the snd-usb-audio, at
http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/MultipleUSBAudioDevices
So, in my case it doesn't seem to work. After I commented it out, the
module seems to load:
k...@xanadu:/etc/modprobe.d$ lsmod | grep snd
snd_hda_codec_si3054 3440 1
snd_hda_codec_realtek 217980 1
snd_hda_intel 22107 2
snd_usb_audio 86704 1
snd_hda_codec 87552 3
snd_hda_codec_si3054,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel
snd_ua101 13972 0
snd_pcm 71475 5
snd_hda_codec_si3054,snd_hda_intel,snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec,snd_ua101
snd_hwdep 5040 2 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec
snd_usbmidi_lib 17413 2 snd_usb_audio,snd_ua101
snd_seq_midi 4588 0
snd_rawmidi 17783 2 snd_usbmidi_lib,snd_seq_midi
snd_seq_midi_event 6047 1 snd_seq_midi
snd_seq 47174 2 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event
snd_timer 19067 2 snd_pcm,snd_seq
snd_seq_device 5744 3 snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq
snd 49006 19
snd_hda_codec_si3054,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec,snd_ua101,snd_pcm,snd_hwdep,snd_usbmidi_lib,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device
soundcore 880 1 snd
snd_page_alloc 7120 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm
and I finally have sound! Jack detects all the inputs and outputs and the
card is working fine.
EXCEPT that after some time and quite randomly (can be 1hr or 1min) the
computer loses connection to the PC (the USB light on the card goes off),
something which never happens in windows for example, so I guess it's a
driver issue...
Any ideas about that?

Akis
