THE BASIC PROBLEM
I have managed to set up a debian system with Alsa recognising 4
identical soundcards - C-Media USB Headsets. However, I am only able
to address one of the devices by name, or by hardware address.
One of these devices is apparently assigned the identifier 'default'
by alsa

Thanks, Stefan.
Your suggestion to address the cards via plug:hw:0 through plug:hw:3
works fine. However, addressing them as default:0 through 3 doesn't
work on my system (Debian Sarge). Every invocation using the word
default like this routes to the same device - the default card. I
can't

Sure, in fact I had similar idea to use more usb-audio adapters with HUBs and
as I researc
I was planning to either run the cards on multiple USB Hubs or buy
multiple PCI USB 2.0 cards and stick these in the back of the
machine. I've bought 3 7-port USB2.0 hubs to hit my 16 card target.
The worst case scenario I had in my mind was that 4 PCI 4-port USB
2.0 cards would need to be
