Ok, problem solved, no patch necesary, and nothing to do really with usb. It turns out that the iMic defaults to /dev/dsp1, /dev/mixer1, & /dev/mixer2 but most of the applications default to /dev/dsp, and for most applications I cannot find a way to re-configure that. What I ended up doing was soft-linking /dev/dsp -> dsp1, with the original /dev/dsp renamed to /dev/dsp0. So to switch between the internal sound to the iMic I am deleting the soft-link and then re-pointing it to the appropiate device. Not very elegant, but it works. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users
