Thanks Andrej,
I will do that.
I also found in the ardour blog some quirk on snd-usb-audio for pod hd pro
in https://community.ardour.org/node/13646. The lsusb of the pod hd pro is
almost identical (except for the product id) from the one of the pod
hd500x.
I would try that path to, I still don't know how to apply the quirk,
apparently adding it to quirks-table.h and compiling the kernel.
I'm not sure why the whole kernel need to be compiled if only the
snd-usb-audio is the affected.
have you tried something like this?
thanks again.
