As it happens, I'd missed something very obvious. In pavucontrol (the one
place I'd failed to look), the device showed up as being auto-configured,
which explained why I couldn't open it with ALSA cli tools, or bridge it
into JACK.

As soon as I disabled the device in pavucontrol, I was able to expose all 4
of its inputs and all 4 outputs in JACK via the zita bridge tools.

Cheers
David
